LATROBE, Pa. -- It's not any surprise, but now it's official: Mike Tomlin announced Mitch Trubisky as the starting quarterback for Saturday's preseason opener against the Seahawks.
Trubisky has been atop the depth chart since the start of OTAs, and hasn't given any reason to lose that spot during the first two weeks of training camp. That also leaves Mason Rudolph and Kenny Pickett playing with the second and third teams, respectively, as they have for the majority of OTAs, minicamp and training camp.
"Like I mentioned to you guys, I wasn't going to be blowing in the wind regarding the quarterback rotation," Tomlin explained Thursday morning.
