Game Report: Bush, Washington, Rudolph shine against Bucs

The Steelers finally got an opportunity to see what they had in first-round draft pick Devin Bush. And the results of that were exactly what they expected.

Just as importantly, they got a nice night of production out of the second-year duo of receiver James Washington and quarterback Mason Rudolph as they held off the Buccaneers in their preseason opener, 30-28, Friday night at Heinz Field.

While Bush was all over the field, making 10 tackles in his debut -- all in the first half -- Rudolph and Washington were helping the Steelers forge a 20-10 lead early in the third quarter.
