Five fouls in one move - breaking down Premier League corner chaos
Exploring the Premier League's set-piece chaos with five fouls in one move.
Mike McCarthy praised rookie quarterback Drew Allar after a successful mini-camp, noting his ability to handle pressure during drills. Allar is competing for the starting quarterback position against Will Howard and Mason Rudolph.
The Steelers got their rookie mini-camp underway this weekend, and while many franchises had multiple quarterbacks present at their sessions, Pittsburgh had just one – third-round draft pick Drew Allar.
And according to Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy, the mini-camp was strategically planned that way. He and his staff wanted to put Allar under a little bit of pressure and see if his rookie quarterback has what it takes to make it in the NFL. And afterward, he told the press that he was quite impressed by what he saw.
“We pushed him," said McCarthy. "To go 35 snaps in a team drill, that's pushing it, but he handled it...If your quarterback can't handle it, then you don't get to go to the speed and the tempo and the pre-snap that we were able to go. I thought Drew did a hell of a job.”
Allar enters a quarterback room where he will battle Will Howard and Mason Rudolph for the starting job, though Rudolph is reportedly a player the franchise is willing to trade this offseason. The unknown in the equation is Aaron Rodgers, who still hasn't issued a definitive decision on whether he will return to the franchise for a second consecutive season. He has reportedly been in discussions, but no news has come.
