The Steelers surprisingly inked Mason Rudolph to a small contract extension right before the draft, and it was undoubtedly a great deal.

While many may cringe at the idea of Mason Rudolph being the Steelers starting quarterback, his recent contract extension seems to indicate that he will be the guy, at least initially, in 2022. To his credit, Rudolph seemed to play leaps and bounds better in his lone start last season than he did in 2019.
