Who doesn’t love a nice, healthy discussion about backup quarterbacks? There isn’t a thing more exciting in professional sports than the guys behind the starter at the most important position in football, after all, as you well know. Especially after a season in which they had to account for 14.5 starts.
That would be the predicament into which the Pittsburgh Steelers step, after Ben Roethlisberger missed that much time in 2019 with torn tendons in his throwing elbow. While they believe that he is virtually as good as new as far as the injury is concerned, having a quality backup quarterback is always important under the best of circumstances.
