The Pittsburgh Steelers are coming off a season where they won 10 games and made the playoffs as they shuffled through three different quarterbacks. One-and-done in the postseason might not sound like an accomplishment, but for this team with that offense, a lot less was expected. Knowing the struggles at the QB position in 2023, it’s a little strange to hear the Steelers aren’t likely to pursue another veteran QB that could challenge for the starting job next season.
Kenny Pickett was drafted to be the successor to Ben Roethlisberger, but that transition hasn’t gone as smoothly as head coach Mike Tomlin and the front office had hoped. Now there seems to be a split of allegiances within the organization after Mason Rudolph went 3-0 as the starter late in the year and helped Pittsburgh earn a playoff berth. Big Ben also added fuel to this fire back in December when commenting on his time as a teammate with Rudolph.
