The State of the Steelers
Well, that escalated quickly! After a successful first year as Pittsburgh’s QB1 in 2022, Kenny Pickett lost his job to Mason Rudolph in 2023. Then, Pittsburgh acquired two franchise QB’s (Russell Wilson and Justin Fields) and ultimately flipped Pickett for peanuts to their cross-state rivals, our beloved Birds. It’s a bold new start for the men of steel, as they have broken free of their conservative ways of team building.
