The battle for the right to succeed Ben Roethlisberger has been raging since the moment Dwayne Haskins was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Every word scrutinized, every practice rep analyzed, every breath they took was watched closely by Steeler fans. One of the most anticipated roster fights I can remember was set to headline the Steelers return to preseason football.
It was the stuff of legends.
The Steelers downplayed the competition, but they downplay everything, fans knew the future of the franchise was going to be decided in a 4 round bout through the preseason games.
