While he remains a raw prospect with room for development, his physical tools and potential have placed him on the radar of <strong>NFL<\/strong> teams. <\/p>\n<div class=\"ue-c-article__summary\">\n<figure class=\"ue-c-article__media ue-c-article__media--video  video-dailymotion ue-c-article__media-video-responsive ue-c-article__media-video-responsive--16-9\"><figcaption class=\"ue-c-article__media-caption\" itemprop=\"description\">\n<p><span class=\"ue-c-article__media-description\">Ben Roethlisberger posible unretiring video goes viral with Steelers fans<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>Pittsburgh, holding the <strong>No. 21 pick<\/strong> in the upcoming NFL Draft, appears to be evaluating all options at the quarterback position as they look to build a sustainable future at the position. As of today, they are looking to add a quarterback for the present and the future.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"ue-c-article__subheadline\">The stats do not lie for him to be considered<\/h2>\n<p>This meeting highlights the Steelers&#8217; methodical approach to scouting potential quarterbacks in the draft. Milroe&#8217;s pro day performance will likely play a significant role in determining how teams, including <strong>Pittsburgh,<\/strong> view his readiness for the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>The Steelers have shown a history of identifying and developing quarterback talent, and Milroe&#8217;s blend of skills could make him an intriguing option for the team moving forward. Over four seasons, Milroe demonstrated consistent growth, completing 64.3% of his passes for a total of<strong> 6,016 yards, 45 touchdowns, and 20 interceptions.<\/strong> His rushing skills were equally impressive, amassing 1,577 yards on 375 carries and scoring 33 touchdowns on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, his productivity peaked in his junior and senior years, where he combined for over <strong>5,600 total yards<\/strong> and 49 touchdowns across both seasons. As draft day approaches, Pittsburgh&#8217;s interest in Milroe adds to the growing intrigue surrounding their strategy for securing a long-term solution at quarterback. Whether Milroe fits into those plans remains to be seen, but the dinner meeting signifies a serious evaluation of his potential by the Steelers&#8217; leadership.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    var utag_data = {};<\/p>\n<p>    window.addEventListener('ue-dfp-loaded', (s) => {\n        let urls = [\n            {\n                url: 'https:\/\/tags.tiqcdn.com\/utag\/unidadeditorial\/marca\/prod\/utag.sync.js'\n            },\n            {\n                url: 'https:\/\/tags.tiqcdn.com\/utag\/unidadeditorial\/marca\/prod\/utag.js'\n            },\n            {\n                url: '\/\/e00-elmundo.uecdn.es\/js\/uecomscore_cmp_event.js'\n            },\n            {\n                url: 'https:\/\/cdn.permutive.com\/10453011-272d-49cd-9043-1964fdb36fd8-web.js'\n            },\n            {\n                url: 'https:\/\/e00-marca.uecdn.es\/assets\/v31\/js\/ue-utils.js'\n            }\n        ]<\/p>\n<p>        urls.forEach((item) => {\n            let a, b, c, d, e;\n            a = item.url;\n            b = document;\n            c=\"script\";\n            d = b.createElement(c);\n            d.src = a;\n            d.type=\"text\/java\" + c;\n            d.async = !0;\n            d.onload = item.callback ?
