Steelers preparing to start Mason Rudolph at QB vs. Bengals

FILE - Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph warms up before an NFL preseason football game against the Detroit Lions, Sunday, Aug. 28, 2022, in Pittsburgh. Mason Rudolph is staying with the Pittsburgh Steelers after all. Pittsburgh signed the longtime backup quarterback to a one-year deal on Wednesday, May 17, 2023, a somewhat unlikely return after Rudolph was essentially passed over twice for the chance to become the starter following Ben Roethlisberger's retirement after the 2021 season.
