Time To See If Randy Can Make Mettenberger Dandy

Even though I was a bit surprised to see the Pittsburgh Steelers claim quarterback Zach Mettenberger off of waivers from the San Diego Chargers on Wednesday, in the grand scheme of things, I probably shouldn’t have been. After all, being as it’s more than obvious now that veteran quarterback Bruce Gradkowski was going to miss extensive time with his hamstring injury and combined with the fact that Landry Jones will be an unrestricted free agent after the 2016 season, and that Bryn Renner is just a body with an arm, it made sense for the team to add Mettenberger to the quarterback room for the 2016 season.
