As Matthew Marczi wrote about yesterday, draft analyst Emory Hunt is high on Pittsburgh Steelers’ UDFA QB Tanner Morgan. Once a college star and potential first round pick, Morgan backslid over his final years at Minnesota and fell out of the 2023 draft entirely. He signed as the Steelers most expensive undrafted free agent, earning a relatively hefty $25,000 signing bonus.
Maybe Hunt is right and Morgan will be a gem. There’s one big question though. Will the Steelers allow him to shine?
With Mason Rudolph’s surprising return, Morgan is relegated to fourth on the team’s depth chart.
