Hopefully, for fans and the team, Khan has some idea of when an answer is coming. Or at least when one is expected to come by.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With the NFL Draft less than a month away, the team needs an understanding of their plan. If Rodgers isn\u2019t coming back, Howard is expected to be the next man up. The Steelers aren\u2019t going to hand a second-year, sixth-round pick anything, though. He\u2019ll need to earn it, and that\u2019ll mean bringing in competition whether through free agency or the draft.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Broderick Jones\u2019 Recovery Timeline<\/p>\n
The last update about Broderick Jones was that he could return during training camp. However, the Steelers may need to know that for certain if they\u2019re going to sit put with the two that they have – Jones and Dylan Cook.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It does feel like the Steelers\u2019 plan is for Jones to be back or Cook to take over while he recovers<\/a>. Their lack of attention at the position in free agency sure shows their confidence in his return, which should be a good indication he\u2019s on track to be back sooner rather than later.\u00a0<\/p>\n Khan or McCarthy confirming that belief puts an end to Pittsburgh fans\u2019 running thoughts of how the team should replace Jones, and how they\u2019re ignoring adding anyone to rest.\u00a0<\/p>\n What\u2019s Going on With Darnall Savage<\/p>\n Where is Darnell Savage?<\/a> The team reportedly agreed to terms with him weeks ago and his agent made it known that he\u2019s excited to play for the Steelers. But he hasn\u2019t signed his contract and until he does, anything can happen.\u00a0<\/p>\n Is it a medical concern? Did something happen since they agreed to a deal? And how long are the Steelers going to wait before they turn to a different option?\u00a0<\/p>\n What\u2019s Next?\u00a0<\/p>\n The big question at this point in the offseason is what\u2019s coming next? The first few waves of free agency are behind them but the team still has holes they could fill. Are they ready too, though, or are they waiting until the NFL Draft?\u00a0<\/p>\n Two years ago, Khan started his local media session by announcing that the team signed Dean Lowry and Kyle Allen. Last year, the conversations were all about Rodgers. We\u2019ll all find out what this year\u2019s conversation is about, or what the big reveal will be.\u00a0<\/p>\n
