Steelers Appear To Have Internal Division Over QB Position
7 months agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers will head into the 2024 season with the idea that quarterback Kenny Pickett, who has gone 14-10 so far, will be their No. 1 QB. However, they also won't go in with the same hope they had this time last year when they were encouraged by how Pickett finished his rookie season in 2022. There actually seems to be internal division that Mason Rudolph should be the starter after the way he finished last year by winning the final three regular season games to get the team into the playoffs. The problem is that Rudolph is an unrestricted free agent and may not return. The Steelers' priority is to bring Rudolph back, which would create an open competition between him and Pickett in training camp this summer. Barring some drastic improvement from Pickett this offseason, both QBs appear to be game-manager types, making him low-upside QB options in fantasy.
