The 2022 NFL season is about to kickoff, but some teams are still not prepared for it. This is the Pittsburgh Steelersā€˜ case, as they have doubts in one of the most important aspects of the team: the starting quarterback role.

For this campaign, multiple teams will have some interesting battles for the starting quarterback role and the Steeles are one of them. WithoutBen Roethlisberger, who retired last year, the team will have to select a new player to command the offense in 2022.

After 17 seasons, Big Ben decided to hang his cleats and end his successful career. But this move left a big hole for the Steelers, who didn’t think of a good transition for the quarterback and now they will try some new pieces this season.
