The Pittsburgh Steelers obviously believe they have their next franchise quarterback in Kenny Pickett as he enters his second NFL season,. On top of that, it now sounds almost certain that veteran backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky will remain in Pittsburgh at least one more season. Beyond those two quarterbacks, it’s yet to be seen who will be the third string at that position in 2023 with the player holding that job in 2022, veteran Mason Rudolph, scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in two weeks from now.
On Tuesday, Steelers general manager Omar Khan held several media sessions at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis and during one them he was asked if he thinks the proverbial ship has sailed when it comes to Rudolph possibly returning in 2023.
