The Pittsburgh Steelers claimed to be comfortable with Mason Rudolph at quarterback heading into the 2022 offseason. Then they quickly signed Mitch Trubisky during free agency and drafted Kenny Pickett in the first round. That’s about how comfortable I suspect they are this offseason with Nate Herbig at center.
While they talked up their belief in Rudolph at the time, they also acknowledged the inevitable competition. And Herbig certainly knows he’s not going to be the only candidate for the center position. They have a hole there in their starting lineup as a result of releasing C Mason Cole.
