The Pittsburgh Steelers are changing quarterbacks as the team fights for a playoff spot. Mason Rudolph will take over as the team's starter after Mitch Trubisky was benched in Week 15, head coach Mike Tomlin announced Monday.

The move comes after Trubisky threw a touchdown and two interceptions in a 30-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15.
