Mitchell Trubisky is going to be a Pittsburgh Steeler. In terms of NFL landing spots, this may be his best case scenario.
Sure, he’s going to get battered behind a porous line of scrimmage. He’s also going to a division where he’ll have to deal with the reigning AFC champions, an always-dangerous Baltimore Ravens team, and whatever the Cleveland Browns are in 2022.
But in a land where lessened quarterback expectations created a gravity well that sucked down everyone in its path, Trubisky could rise above his field. Between Ben Roethlisberger’s waning arm strength, Dwayne Haskins’ failed lottery ticket, and Mason Rudolph’s overwhelming Mason Rudolph-ness, Pittsburgh has been forced to endure sub-replacement quarterbacking the past two seasons. Despite this, the Steelers made it to the postseason each year.
