Kevin Colbert On QB Depth: ‘We’re Comfortable With Those Backups’

Pretty much everyone in the national media believes the Pittsburgh Steelers either should or will address the quarterback position this offseason. Many propose that they go out and sign a veteran backup. Some delusional fools actually have argued for the team releasing Ben Roethlisberger, or hoping he retires, and using the relative pittance they save in cap space to acquire, either via free agency or through trade, a legitimate starter.

Roethlisberger, of course, is rehabbing from an elbow injury that cost him almost all of the 2019 season. He was seen grimacing several times during the second quarter of the second game of the season, and by half time, Mason Rudolph was under center.
