The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback landscape—among many other things—changed in an instant along a Florida highway not too long ago, when 24-year-old quarterback Dwayne Haskins was struck and killed, apparently as he was returning home from training with teammates and new quarterback Mitch Trubisky.
The team signed Trubisky this offseason to a two-year deal with a base value of $14.25 million that could rise to $27 million through incentives. Behind him is only Mason Rudolph, now, or rather, alongside him, with Haskins’ tragic accident.
As painful as it is, however, there are practical decisions to be made, and the reality is that the Steelers will have to add two more quarterbacks to their offseason roster before training camp.
