This afternoon, the Steelers have claimed QB Zach Mettenberger off waivers. This, undoubtedly, answers the question on who the third QB was going to be. Many in Steelers Nation have suggested many names, including names the Steelers could trade for. But thankfully, the Steelers don’t have to give up any draft picks.
To make room for Mettenberger, the Steelers placed Bruce Gradkowski on IR. Gradkowski hasn’t seen a snap since the first pre-season game against the Detroit Lions. With the addition of Mettenberger, the writing on the wall seems to indicate that Gradkowski’s days with the Steelers are done.
