The hero of the 2023 season for the Pittsburgh Steelers, QB Mason Rudolph, signed elsewhere after it became apparent that his former team had other plans than to give him a shot to earn the job. Kenny Pickett requested his way out of town because he reportedly felt misled about the nature of the quarterback competition with Russell Wilson, and then the Steelers acquired Justin Fields in a trade. That pretty much sealed the deal on Rudolph, an unrestricted free agent, moving on to another organization. He landed with the Tennessee Titans.
In Tennessee, Will Levis flashed enough in his rookie season to be the top guy entering 2024, but there is a competition underway for the top backup spot between Rudolph and 2022 third-round pick Malik Willis.
