Mason Rudolph Secures Titans QB2 Job As Tennessee Trades Away Malik Willis

After serving as the Pittsburgh Steelers No. 3 quarterback the past two years, Mason Rudolph has graduated to the top backup spot with the Tennessee Titans. Seemingly having an edge on Malik Willis all camp, Rudolph’s No. 2 spot was cemented earlier today when the Titans dealt Willis to the Green Bay Packers for a 7th round pick.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport confirmed the trade and compensation.

The Titans drafted Willis in the third round of the 2022 draft, a promising and high-upside quarterback the Steelers evaluated before drafting Kenny Pickett.
