You know the story. Steelers week 2 against Seattle, Ben grabs at his elbow in pain. That pain turned out to be an injury that would require season-ending surgery. The next man up? Mason Rudolph.
Mason Rudolph stepped in and had a decent performance in the loss to the Seahawks. From that point on, he had a few moments that were solid performances and a few that were painful to watch.
Much of Steelers Nation has written off Rudolph as nothing more than a bust. He’s not seen by the fan base as the quarterback of the future–which is fair to a degree.
