Maurkice Pouncey Explains Difference Playing For Ben Roethlisberger Versus Mason Rudolph

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been searching for a successor to Ben Roethlisberger since he retired after the 2021 season. Justin Fields looks like the most promising option at this point, but it’s only been three games, and anything can change. Not too long ago, Mason Rudolph looked like the possible heir to Roethlisberger, but those dreams died after he struggled during the 2019 season. Former Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey recently explained how much different it was playing with Rudolph that year.

“Rudolph came in the one year, and I’ve been so grateful for [Roethlisberger] my whole entire career,” Pouncey said during a recent appearance on Footbahlin’ with Ben Roethlisberger.
