Former Buffalo Bills backup quarterback Mitchell Trubisky has agreed to a two-year deal with the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.
Garafolo reports Trubisky will be the "expected starter" after Ben Roethlisberger's retirement.
Trubisky spent the 2021 season as a backup to Josh Allen after four seasons with the Chicago Bears, who selected him second overall in 2017 out of North Carolina. While he racked up a winning record with the Bears (29-21), he was inconsistent, which led to the team's decision not to pick up his fifth-year option.
In 51 career games with the Bears across four seasons, the 27-year-old completed 64 percent of his passes for 10,609 yards and 64 touchdowns against 37 interceptions.
