Mason Rudolph Leads Early Charge, Fades In Week 8 Loss
5 months agoTennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph had his team looking competitive early on in Sunday's matchup with the Lions, leading two touchdown drives with the score knotted at 14 apiece a minute into the second quarter, but ultimately lost 52-14 after failing to score the rest of the game. The 29-year-old finished 22 of 38 passing with 266 yards, one TD pass, and two interceptions, plus he added four rushes for 29 yards and a rush TD of his own. Much to Calvin Ridley's delight, Rudolph gave him 15 looks and was able to connect on 10 of them for 143 yards. The Titans have a winnable matchup at home versus the Patriots in Week 9, but it is uncertain whether Will Levis will be ready or not by then. Neither one would realistically be a viable streaming option, but for Ridley managers at least, it seems Rudolph would at least be a slight upgrade for his fantasy prospects.

Mason Rudolph Back In The Steel City
3 weeks agoFree-agent quarterback Mason Rudolph agreed to a two-year, $8 million deal with $4.5 million guaranteed to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Rudolph considered multiple offers, including re-signing with the Tennessee Titans, but he ultimately chose to return to Pittsburgh after playing for them from 2019-23. The Steelers took the 29-year-old in the third round (76th overall) in 2018 out of Oklahoma State. Rudolph ended up taking over for the struggling Will Levis in Tennessee last year and went 146-for-228 for 1,530 yards, nine touchdowns and nine interceptions in eight games (five starts). He's pretty much been a game manager in his five years in the NFL, and he'll represent insurance for Pittsburgh with Justin Fields leaving for the Jets and Russell Wilson unsettled on where he'll land. The Steelers likely signed Rudolph with the intention of him being a backup again.

Mason Rudolph Gets Three Drives In Week 18
3 months agoTennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph completed 7-of-9 pass attempts for 70 yards and ran the ball once for five yards in a 23-14 loss to the Houston Texans Sunday. Rudolph entered the game for Will Levis early in the second quarter after starting on the sidelines. In his three drives before returning to the bench, he led Tennessee to two field goals for their first six points of the game. In the future, Rudolph will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason. The Titans may look to the quarterback position with the first overall pick in April's draft, so Rudolph will have to hope that he's done enough this year to earn an NFL roster spot in 2025.

Mason Rudolph Takes Over For Titans In Second Half
3 months agoTennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph took over as quarterback in the second half as Will Levis took a seat. The Titans could only muster up three points in the first half as Levis completed three of his five throws for 31 yards and was sacked once. Both quarterbacks have posted eerily similar stats this year, but Levis has started in one more win over Rudolph. They aren't playing for anything other than a better draft pick, so this seems to be a tryout to see if the team will hang on to both signal callers going into next season.

Mason Rudolph Moved To Bench, Not A Reliable Option For Week 18
3 months agoTennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph will be on the bench to begin Week 18's contest against the Houston Texans. It has been reported that Will Levis will reclaim his role as starter, though Rudolph will still see some snaps at some point in the game. Since returning to action in Week 15, Rudolph has shown promise as a fantasy QB, throwing for five touchdowns and averaging 218 passing yards per game over that span. However, with his playing time up in the air for Sunday, it's hard to see him being a viable option for the final week of the fantasy football season.
