Sources: Steelers QB Mason Rudolph likely out Week 17 with shoulder injury

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph is expected to miss Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens with a left shoulder injury, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

With Rudolph sidelined, the Steelers will stick with Devlin Hodges as starter as they try to make the playoffs.

Paxton Lynch will be Hodges' backup.

The Steelers benched Hodges on Sunday against the New York Jets after he threw two interceptions in the first half and put Rudolph into the game. Rudolph threw a touchdown pass near the end of the first half to tie the game but was injured on a hit in the second half, forcing Hodges back into the game, which the Steelers lost, 16-10.
