PFF Weighs In On Backup QB Battle, High On Both Rudolph And Dobbs

Everybody has an opinion about the Pittsburgh Steelers’ race for the backup quarterback position between third-year incumbent backup Joshua Dobbs and 2018 third-round draft pick Mason Rudolph. And everybody is confident that they’re right. Including the ones who think that Devlin Hodges should be the backup, but this one isn’t about those people.

The latest to chime in with their take regarding the roster battle is Pro Football Focus, with Gordon McGuinness posting a breakdown of the performances of both quarterbacks. Through the first two preseason games, the site has actually graded both quarterbacks exceedingly well, with Dobbs the receiving the fourth-highest grade at the position and Rudolph the sixth.
