Mandatory Credit: Charles LeClaire-Imagn Images Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Will Howard left practice on Tuesday with a finger injury on his right (throwing) hand.
Steelers beat reporter Mark Kaboly said Howard gave a thumbs up as he left the practice field and the injury isn't expected to be serious.
Pittsburgh drafted Howard in the sixth round of April's NFL draft out of Ohio State, where he led the Buckeyes to a national championship in his lone season at the school.
In four seasons at Kansas State and one at Ohio State, Howard threw for 9,796 yards, 83 touchdowns and 35 interceptions, including 4,010 yards, 35 TDs and 10 picks in 16 games last year.
Howard is competing with Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson for a backup QB spot behind Aaron Rodgers.
