PITTSBURGH — Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said all three quarterbacks will play in Saturday night's preseason opener against the Seattle Seahawks and be used similar to the way they have been utilized in training camp at Saint Vincent College.
That means Mitch Trubisky, who has taken every snap with the first-team offense since the spring and is expected to be Ben Roethlisberger's replacement when the regular season begins, will start against the Seahawks and play the first quarter.
It should mean he will be replaced by Mason Rudolph, who will play the second and possibly into the third quarter with the second group. Rudolph has appeared in 11 preseason games in his previous four seasons with the Steelers.
