2022 Fantasy Projections: Mitchell Trubisky

After 18 years with Ben Roethlisberger under center, Mitchell Trubisky gets a shot to be the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting quarterback. Most football observers think of Trubisky as a first-round bust (second overall pick in 2017). After a quiet rookie season with the Bears (4-8 with seven touchdown passes and seven interceptions), he went 25-13 over his next 38 starts, with a Pro Bowl appearance in 2018. His completion rate (65.3) was respectable over this stretch, but Trubisky settles for too many short passes (6.7 yards per pass attempt). He will help the Steelers’ run game with his legs (203/1,081/9 – in his career), which should be a win for Najee Harris as well.
