With first-round selection Kenny Pickett playing well during preseason action, and Mitchell Trubisky keeping up his end of the bargain in the quarterback competition, the Pittsburgh Steelers have three options at the position, with Mason Rudolph also in the fold. But while Rudolph might end up third on the depth chart, according to a new report the team is “reluctant” to trade him at this time.
Part of the reason is financial. Rudolph signed a one-year contract extension in April of 2021, and has a base salary of just $3 million this season.
