At least 15 starters, including quarterback Aaron Rodgers, won't be on the field for the Pittsburgh Steelers' first preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Saturday at 7 p.m. ET in Jacksonville.
They won't even have rookie sixth-round quarterback Will Howard, who is sidelined with a broken finger on his throwing hand. Instead, it'll be Mason Rudolph and Skylar Thompson splitting reps, with the outside possibility that newly signed QB Logan Woodside sees some action.
But even without Rodgers, wide receiver DK Metcalf and cornerback Jalen Ramsey, there's plenty to glean from the matchup.
