Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan addressed the team’s quarterback situation on Tuesday by saying the club plans to add a pair of signal callers to the roster.

Quarterbacks currently on the roster are Mason Rudolph, a former Steeler who is returning after a season with the Tennessee Titans, and Skylar Thompson, the former Miami Dolphins backup.

“I know you’re gonna ask about the quarterback position,” Khan said. “I’ll just tell you guys the same thing we discussed in Palm Beach (at the league meetings) a couple of weeks ago. We go to camp with four quarterbacks. Right now we have two on the roster. All options are on the table on how we acquire the last two. I assure you we’ll have four when we get to (training camp at) Latrobe.”

Head coach Mike Tomlin then was asked how the uncertain situation involving free-agent quarterback Aaron Rodgers affects the Steelers’ approach to the NFL draft, which begins Thursday.

“It does not,” Tomlin said.

The Steelers hold the No. 21 overall pick of the first round. Should the team select a quarterback, that would have an impact on Rodgers.

“I think what you do in the draft oftentimes affects maybe some talent acquisition that happens after,” Tomlin said. “We’ll see how the acquisition goes this weekend.”

Russell Wilson and Justin Fields were the starters in Pittsburgh last season and both signed free agent deals to play in New York — Wilson with the Giants, Fields with the Jets.

Rodgers, 41, passed for 3,897 yards and 28 touchdowns with the New York Jets in 2024, returning from a season-ending Achilles injury suffered in his first game with the team in September 2023.

The 10-time Pro Bowl selection ranks fifth in league history in touchdown passes (503) and seventh in passing yards (62,952).
