Chris Oladokun Thinks Now Is The Best Time To Enter NFL As QB With ‘A Lot Of Athleticism’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are entering a period of change, and nothing exemplifies that more than just how unfamiliar the quarterback room is. Gone is Ben Roethlisberger, who spent the past 18 years patrolling the halls of the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex. The only quarterback remaining from last year’s room is Mason Rudolph, and many are wondering if he will make the team this year.

If he doesn’t, then it will be thanks to Chris Oladokun, the second of two quarterbacks that the Steelers drafted in 2022. A seventh-round pick, he understands that he has his work cut out for him in a room with Mitch Trubisky and Kenny Pickett, a couple of former first-round draft picks, Rudolph serving as his most direct competition.
