Positional Grades: Steelers At Jaguars

Who needs Aaron Rodgers or Will Howard when you have Mason Rudolph and the Thompy Gun, Skylar Thompson?

All kidding aside, the Pittsburgh Steelers offense looked pretty solid Saturday night in the preseason opener against the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road in a 31-25 win, leaning heavily on the right arm of Thompson. Meanwhile, unheralded receivers like Max Hurleman, Ke’Shawn Williams and Roc Taylor made some big plays leading to the win.

Defensively, Pittsburgh was able to do just enough, holding on late to get the team’s first preseason win since Aug. 24, 2023 over the Atlanta Falcons.
