Penn State Nittany Lions quarterback Drew Allar made waves at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine this week after an intense meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers, valued at $6.5 billion (per Forbes), on Thursday.

After a 2025 season hampered by a broken ankle, Allar is fighting to solidify his spot in the 2026 QB class.
