The Pittsburgh Steelers will add a quarterback from the outside, Gerry Dulac said this week — and floated the name of Mason Rudolph. Is a reunion in order? Well, that depends on the expectations because they’re only looking for a backup.
While the Steelers say they will explore every option at quarterback this offseason, that’s not what everybody seems to think. Most figure they will bring back one of their two “starting” quarterbacks, either Russell Wilson or Justin Fields. They are unlikely to retain both, which means they need a new No. 2.
“If the Steelers do settle on Fields, there is still a matter of who will be the backup,” Dulac wrote.
