The head coach has two options, Kenny Pickett or <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Pittsburgh-Steelers-make-final-decision-about-Mitch-Trubisky-20230301-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mitch Trubisky</a>, but a 4-time Super Bowl champion with the AFC North team knows who’s the perfect player for the job.
The 2022 NFL season was not the best for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Pittsburgh-Steelers-get-a-key-piece-for-their-offense-in-free-agency-20230319-0009.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Steelers</a>. As they are rebuilding after Ben Roethlisberger’s retirement, the team must find who’s going to be his replacement and lead them to success.
Last year, Tomlin used both Kenny Pickett and Mitch Trubisky to see who’s the best option for them. For this reason, a Steelers legend has revealed who’s his favorite to take the offense.
<h2>Steelers’ 4-time Super Bowl champion chooses between Kenny Pickett and Mitch Trubisky</h2>
In 2022, the Steelers decided to sign Mitch Trubisky even though they selected Kenny Pickett with the 20th-overall pick. The former Bears quarterback was set to be his backup, but he fought until the end for the starter role.
Mike Tomlin has a tough decision to make, but he has received some help from a 4-time Super Bowl champion and a Steelers legend. Terry Bradshaw has selected who he thinks is the best quarterback in the roster.
“Got to love this guy!!” Bradshaw wrote on his official Facebook page. “Kenny Pickett, here’s to your great future with the Steelers.”
Bradshaw is probably the best quarterback in Steelers history as he won four Super Bowls with the AFC North squad. For this reason, he’s a recognized voice when talking about a player for the position he used to play.

NFL News: Pickett or Trubisky? Steelers' 4-time Super Bowl champion selects his favorite

Though they won six of their last seven games, a 9-8 record wasn’t enough to clinch a Wild Card ticket in the AFC. This was the first year after<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Ben-Roethlisberger-makes-incredible-prediction-about-Kenny-Pickett-20230105-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ben Roethlisberger</a>announced hisretirement.
Mitch Trubiskybegan as the starter, but, prior to Week 5, head coachMike Tomlin made the call thousands of fans were expecting. RookieKenny Pickettwas in charge. For Tomlin, the streak of no losing seasons continued with sixteen. Nevertheless, the Steelers haven’t won a playoff game in the last six years. That’s not a great standard for a franchise with sixSuper Bowls.
So, towardnext season,<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-ben-roethlisberger-has-a-piece-of-advice-for-kenny-pickett-steelers-20221004-0035.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kenny Pickett</a>seems to be the front-runner. However, Mitch Trubisky is a key piece as a backup quarterback in caseanything happens, but, his future withthe team is uncertain. Now,the<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Franco-Harris-passed-away-What-was-the-Immaculate-Reception-with-the-Pittsburgh-Steelers-20221221-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a> are ready to make a decision.
<h2>Pittsburgh Steelers announce final decision aboutMitch Trubisky</h2>
Mitch Trubisky has still one year left of his contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, during the last few weeks, no one knew for sure a final decision regarding his status as quarterback of the team.
Since Kenny Pickett became the starter, many reports pointed out that Trubisky might request a trade or to be released. Nevertheless, at least for the Pittsburgh Steelers, the final decision has been made. They want Mitch Trubisky in the team according to the words of general manager, Omar Khan.
“Mitch has been great. It’s been great having him around and I look forward having him around here for a long time. Not only this year, but fora long time. I want Mitch around.”
If Mitch Trubisky stays, then almost certainly Mason Rudolph won’t come back with the Steelers. Rudolph was selected in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Mike Tomlin’s team even made a trade with the Seattle Seahawks to go up and get him. That’s because many scouts within the organization believed he had first-round potential.
Now, following five years with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mason Rudolph might have decided that the opportunity he deserves most definitely is elsewhere. Considering the front office wants Mitch Trubisky to stay alongside Kenny Pickett, Rudolph would be out leaving the Steelers with a little headache towards the NFL Draft and free agency. Find a third quarterback for the roster.

Nevertheless, Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph know really well the system in order to, at least, put some heat in the race at the depth chart of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Franco-Harris-passed-away-What-was-the-Immaculate-Reception-with-the-Pittsburgh-Steelers-20221221-0015.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pittsburgh Steelers</a>. The problem is one of those might have made a huge decision.
<h2>Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback won’t return next season</h2>
According to many reports from Pittsburgh, Mason Rudolph had enough of the Steelers. Rudolph was selected in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Mike Tomlin’s team even made a trade with the Seattle Seahawks to go up and get him. That’s because many scouts within the organization believed he had first-round potential.
So, the plan was to develop Mason Rudolph until Ben Roethlisberger decided to retire. When Big Ben got injured in the 2019 season, Rudolph alternated chances as starter with Duck Hodges, but never really earned the trust of Mike Tomlin. After his first four-year contract, considering he was a solid backup, Rudolph signed a new one year deal.
Then, when the Pittsburgh Steelers training camp began in 2022, Mason Rudolph was promised by Mike Tomlin a fair chance to compete for the starting job with Kenny Pickett and Mitch Trubisky. Rudolph had the best quarterback performances during the preseason, but, Tomlin gave the starting job to Mitch Trubisky.
Furthermore, when Mitch Trubisky failed as starter, Kenny Pickett got the call. In that moment, Mason Rudolph wasn’t even considered to climb to the No.2 spot in the depth chart. So, he saw most of the games in the stands without being activated. Again, Rudolph had nochance to compete.
Now, following five years with the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mason Rudolph might have decided that the opportunity he deserves most definitely is elsewhere. This creates a problem for the team, because no one knows for sure if Mitch Trubisky would accept a backup role or ask to be traded.
With Mason Rudolph leaving and Mitch Trubisky’s uncertainty, the Steelers could start training camp with only one quarterback available. For Rudolph, the search for a new team has started, in order to prove all the critics were wrong about him after a very solid career at Oklahoma State.

After Big Ben announced his retirement, everyone at Pittsburgh was scared of whatwould comenext. The teamdid not prepare a proper transition for the quarterback, so they had to go to the market to find one.
That’s when theyacquired Mitch Trubisky, who had a rough time at the Chicago Bears. It was uncertain if he was going to start for the Steelers and now they have moved on from him on to a newquarterback for the rest of the season.
<h2>Report: Mitch Trubisky won’t be Steelers’ starting quarterback for Week 5</h2>
The Steelers are having a rough time in the beginning of the 2022 NFL season. Mitch Trubisky was unableto succeed and the patience is over for head coach Mike Tomlin.
“I thought we needed a spark, man,” said Mike Tomlin about Kenny Pickett’s appearance last Sunday. “We didn’t do much in the first half, not enough offensively, and I thought he could provide a spark for us.”
Kenny Pickett played the last snaps against the New York Jets, but had a worse QB rating than Mitch Trubisky. The rookie had three passes intecepted for a 28.4 QBR, while the former Bears’ player has, after four games, a 34 QBR.
Even though he had a rough time against the Jets, Kenny Pickett is set to be the starting quarterback for Week 5 when the Steelers face the Bills. It won’t be an easy game for him as he will play against a great defense like the one from Buffalo.

Most analysts doubted Trubisky from day one and thought Kenny Pickett would take his job by the start of the season. However, that didn’t happen, and the rookie is currently second on the depth chart.
Trubisky has failed to impress through the first three games of the season, so some still believe <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/richard-sherman-says-he-wouldnt-trust-kenny-pickett-20220509-0020.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he could be benched</a>. That’s not going to change any time soon, as Mike Tomlin seems to believe he’s not ready yet.
<h2>NFL News: Mike Tomlin Won’t Bench Mitch Trubisky For Kenny Pickett</h2>
“I’m not in that mindset. I’m interested in reviewing this tape and figuring out how we collectively get better,” the coach said after the game. “So, the answer to that question is definitively no.”

<h2>Tomlin Lauds The Browns’ Running Game</h2>
Steelers and Browns were quite close for most of the game before the home team dominated late. Tomlin had no choice but to tip his hat off and give them a lot of credit for how they dominated the tempo:
“I think if you’re playing these guys, and you’re looking at their offense, boy you better minimize Chubb and Hunt,” said Tomlin. “A lot of ball rolls to those guys. They’re not 1 and 2, they’re 1 and 1A. They are a formidable tandem and probably the most complete tandem in football, so we’ve got our work cut out for us there.”
“I thought they controlled the line of scrimmage, particularly in the second half,” added Tomlin. “If you can’t slow down Chubb, you can’t beat this group. And we knew that, and we didn’t get it done. So, we got to own the outcome, and we will. There’s not a lot really to talk about. We got to look at this tape and learn and get better and get better very fast.”

We all knew this was going to be a tough season for the Steelers, and rookie QBs often need a year on the sidelines before being ready to step up. Still, one can only wonder if Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph are the guys you want mentoring your future franchise QB.

It took <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-matthew-stafford-makes-worrisome-comment-about-his-injury-20220906-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Matthew Stafford</a> one season to lead them to a Super Bowl win after years of dealing with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-sean-mcvay-has-one-big-regret-about-the-jared-goff-trade-20220701-0008.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jared Goff’s shortcomings.</a>
You need a good quarterback to win. It’s as simple as that. One mediocre QB might do the job here and then, and you could even make the playoffs— yes, we’re looking at you, Jimmy G— if you have a good team, but you won’t win when it matters the most.
That’s because <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/baltimore-ravens-still-doesnt-know-if-lamar-jackson-is-going-to-sit-in-week-1-20220906-0037.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">the QB carousel</a> is always a big story every season. The guy who starts Week 1 may not make it to Week 6. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the top 3 veteran QBs at risk of losing their job.
<h2>NFL News: 3 Veteran QBs Who Might Lose Their Starting Job By Midseason</h2>
<h3>3. Marcus Mariota</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220908_BUS_199640_marcus_mariota.jpg_22993414_bc02e4c9.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Marcus Mariota – Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Marcus Mariota failed to live up to the hype as a former second-overall pick. He wasn’t the dual-threat, explosive QB he was in Oregon and wound up losing his job to Ryan Tannehill of all guys. That’s how bad things got.
He now has another shot at being a starter after backing up Derek Carr for a couple of years. However, the Atlanta Falcons are high on Desmond Ridder, and they may not need a lot of excuses to give their future QB a chance to audition for the job.
<h3>2. Ryan Tannehill</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220908_BUS_199640_ryan_tannehill.jpg_22993414_d8f1414f.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Ryan Tannehill – Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
As we mentioned before, Ryan Tannehill is only starting because Marcus Mariota was even worse. But truth be told, it doesn’t get any more ‘mid’ than him. While he’s not the worst guy you could have at QB, he’s not particularly good at anything, either.
Malik Willis balled out in college, and some believe he could be the best QB prospect in his class. He was quite impressive in the preseason, and the Tennessee Titans might turn to him if their offense struggles without A.J. Brown.
<h3>1. Mitch Trubisky</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="413" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:413" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220908_BUS_199640_mitch_trubisky_x1x.jpg_22993414_a2621cc8.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=413" width="740" height="413"></figure><figcaption> Mitch Trubisky – Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
The fact that Mitch Trubisky and Kenny Pickett both beat Mason Rudolph in the depth chart speaks volumes of how terrible Rudolph is, but it’s not like Trubisky is a significant upgrade. If anything, it was shocking not to see them start their prized rookie.
Trubisky’s numbers aren’t that bad, but his well-documented shortcomings, meltdowns, and avoidable mistakes are a big red flag. The Pittsburgh Steelers have a potential star on their hands in Pickett, so he should be behind center at some point in the season.

This season won’t be the exception to that rule. As per usual, some up-and-coming prospects seem ready to take the reins of the offense and beat their not-so-impressive competition for a starting job.
A poor start to the season could cost multiple players their spot on the depth chart. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the three <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/aaron-rodgers-explains-how-he-learned-from-packers-legend-brett-favre-20220609-0024.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quarterbacks</a> at the most risk of losing their starting job mid-season.
<h2>NFL News: 3 Quarterbacks Who Could Lose Their Starting Spot Mid-Season</h2>
<h3>3. Mitch Trubisky</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="397" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:397" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220616_BUS_193241_mitch_trubisky.jpg_631782975_6e3bb6e8.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=397" width="740" height="397"></figure><figcaption> Mitch Trubisky- Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Mitch Trubisky’s overall numbers were solid with the Chicago Bears, but his poor play cost him his job once. He’s now looking to redeem himself after backing up Josh Allen. However, the Pittsburgh Steelers have already drafted their future franchise QB.
Even Head Coach Mike Tomlin acknowledged that he wouldn’t be surprised if Kenny Pickett started for them this season. Trubisky’s margin for error will be close to zero with the prized rookie lurking in the shadows.
<h3>2. Marcus Mariota</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="397" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:397" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220616_BUS_193241_marcus_mariota.jpg_631782975_9fdddffb.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=397" width="740" height="397"></figure><figcaption> Marcus Mariota- Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Marcus Mariota failed to live up to the expectations of being a top-2 pick. The Tennessee Titans eventually benched him in favor of Ryan Tannehill of all people, which should tell you enough about how poorly he performed.
After a brief stint with the Las Vegas Raiders, the Atlanta Falcons are now trusting Mariota as their next QB. But Desmond Ridder has already vowed to take over, and the Falcons are a young team who could benefit from letting their prospect grow through his mistakes.
<h3>1. Sam Darnold</h3>
<div style="text-align:center">
<figure class="image"> <figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" data-height="397" data-width="740" data-size="w:740,h:397" hspace="5" vspace="5" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20220616_BUS_193241_sam_darnold.jpg_631782975_4cc339e4.webp&amp;width=740&amp;height=397" width="740" height="397"></figure><figcaption> Sam Darnold – Getty Images </figcaption></figure>
</div>
Sam Darnold proved that the only problem with his game wasn’t his scenery. He was as bad with the Carolina Panthers as he was with the New York Jets, and all signs point that he’s not an NFL-caliber quarterback by any means.
The Panthers already benched him once, and they’re reportedly looking to trade for another replacement. If not, rookie Matt Corral could also get an opportunity if (when) Darnold starts ‘seeing ghosts’ again.
