It’s been the NFL’s worst-kept secret for weeks now. But after running as the team’s #1 quarterback since the spring, Mike Tomlin officially named Mitch Trubisky the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting QB. Tomlin made the announcement during his weekly Tuesday press conference.
“Mitch Trubisky is our starting QB and our captain,” Tomlin said a short time ago. “We’re really comfortable with what Mitch has shown us.”
Trubisky has run as the team’s starter since signing on the first day of free agency. Though there were some ups and downs in his play, Trubisky overall played well this summer.
