The Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the NFL’s most consistent franchises, both in their ability to win and the continuity within their organization. However, this offseason has shown that they’ll make changes if they need to, with the team bringing in a new offensive coordinator in Arthur Smith and completely overhauling its quarterback room. Kenny Pickett massively underperformed last year, as did Mitch Trubisky when he was asked to start, with Mason Rudolph being the best of the bunch, helping to rally the team down the stretch on the way to a playoff appearance.
With that kind of performance, it makes sense why the Steelers wanted to re-sign Rudolph, but there were reports that the team signing Russell Wilson caused Rudolph to feel scorned and decide to play elsewhere this season.
