Tomlin’s Expectations Of Hodges Following QB Switch: ‘I Expect Him To Not Kill Us’

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin announced on Tuesday the team’s decision to start quarterback Devlin Hodges on Sunday at Heinz Field against the Cleveland Browns. While the decision to start Hodges over quarterback Mason Rudolph wasn’t an overly surprising one based on what all transpired during the team’s Sunday road win over the Cincinnati Bengals, Tomlin was still peppered Tuesday with questions about the choice. Additionally, Tomlin was asked to reveal what kind of expectations he now has for Hodges on Sunday against the Browns.

“You know, there’s not enough plays on his resume to paint with a broad brush in the ways that you suggest,” Tomlin said.
