Mason Rudolph News
The Athletic's Mark Kaboly would give the edge to quarterback Mason Rudolph to start over Mitch Trubisky in Week 15 against the Carolina Panthers if rookie Kenny Pickett doesn't clear the league's concussion protocol. Rudolph said that he and Trubisky split repetitions at practice on Wednesday with Pickett only doing individual drills. This could be a mute point by the weekend if Pickett clears the concussion protocol, but this is his second time suffering a concussion in his first NFL season. More clarity on the Steelers' QB position this week will come after two more days of practice. Trubisky appeared in a game last Sunday for the first time since Week 6 and went 22-for-30 for 276 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions in the loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett (concussion) was a limited practice participant on Wednesday. As a result, third-stringer Mason Rudolph said he split the first-team repetitions with Mitch Trubisky, as head coach Mike Tomlin indicated they would if Pickett didn't practice in full. It's good news that Pickett is doing anything at all after suffering a concussion in the Week 14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, but he's not out of the woods yet. And if he ultimately isn't cleared to play in Week 15 against the Carolina Panthers, there's a chance that the Steelers go with Rudolph under center over Trubisky. Keep in mind that this is Pickett's second time in the concussion protocol in his first NFL season.
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph made it clear that he wanted to take more first-team reps in the preseason. "I think it's kind of in the rearview mirror now. would've liked to have had more first-team reps, but decisions are made. I'm moving forward." For context, the Steelers favored starter Mitch Trubisky in camp and also named rookie Kenny Pickett the starter over the disgruntled Rudolph. "I'm a much better player than I was Year 1 to Year 5," he said. "I'm confident in myself and happy with myself when I did get the reps. I'm going to do whatever I'm asked to do. Other than that, I guess I'll just kind of hold the clipboard." Rudolph drew trade interest in August but was never dealt. Instead, he remains the Steelers' No. 3 quarterback and should be left on waivers in all fantasy leagues.
