The quarterbacks who played for the Steelers in 2023 all struggled mightily. Kenny Pickett couldn’t stay healthy, and even when he was, he didn’t take the step forward that the team needed from him. Mitch Trubisky managed to disappoint fans even more than he did in 2022. Mason Rudolph emerged as the best of the bunch, and even then, he was still only slightly above average. The Steelers seemed to notice this as well, as they completely overhauled their quarterback room.
With Russell Wilson in place as the starter and Justin Fields right behind him in case things go south, the Steelers seem to be in a better spot at this point compared to last year.
