One of the most polarizing picks of the Pittsburgh Steelers<\/a>‘ 2026 NFL Draft<\/a> class has apparently picked up quite a following, enough to crack the top 10 in rookie jersey sales.<\/p>\n

According to a graphic shared by the NFL on Fox Sports’ X account, Allar, Dallas Cowboys<\/a> safety Caleb Downs<\/a>, Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> quarterback Fernando Mendoza, and seven others, are among the top-selling rookie jerseys via Fanatics.<\/p>\n

Allar, who was selected by the Steelers<\/a> with the 76th overall pick in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, threw for 7,402 yards and 61 touchdowns during his four seasons at Penn State (2022-2025).<\/p>\n

While some were surprised by the Allar pick, especially with 2025 sixth-rounder Will Howard<\/a> potentially in line for a starting opportunity down the road, the quarterback position was impossible to ignore as the Aaron Rodgers<\/a> waiting game continues to run rampant in Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n
