Ready or not, Mason Rudolph is next man up. The good news? He sure sounds like he’s ready to roll. The new Steelers’ starting QB spoke to reporters for the first time since the news Ben Roethlisberger’s season is over due to his upcoming elbow surgery. Rudolph made his NFL debut in yesterday’s loss to Seattle and will make his first start next Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. He said he’s ready to step up.
“I worked for this and I wanted to be in this position,” he said via the team website.
