With one final drive playing with a bunch of guys who won't be around next month, Mason Rudolph proved he is not going away without a fight — if, indeed, he goes away at all.
It probably wasn't easy for Rudolph to follow Kenny Pickett's act in Saturday night's 16-15 comeback victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars. But he managed to do that and steal some of the spotlight when he led a perfectly executed game-winning drive and threw a 1-yard touchdown to undrafted rookie Tyler Snead with 1:56 remaining.
"I've played my fair share of games," Rudolph said afterward in the locker room. "A lot of these guys haven't. It's your job as a quarterback, always, no matter who you're playing with, to lead them and exude confidence."
