The Next Sam Darnold? Chris Hoke Thinks Mason Rudolph Could Thrive If Asked To Start

When the Steelers signed Aaron Rodgers, many fans worried about the potential outcomes of a soon-to-be 42-year-old taking snaps. One of the biggest worries was his durability behind an offensive line that came into the year with a lot of questions. That unit definitely allowed some pressure during the first half of the Steelers’ 34-12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Rodgers handled the pressure decently but injured his left wrist after taking a hit late in the second quarter. Mason Rudolph came in for the rest of the game as a result.

Rudolph actually did quite well in relief of Rodgers.
