WATCH: Mitch Trubisky taking all first-team reps, has firm grasp Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting QB gig
Apr. 23, 2024 – 23:26 – The Pittsburgh Steelers struck quickly in free agency this past offseason, signing Mitch Trubisky to be the heir apparent to Ben Roethlisberger after 18 seasons with the team. Then, in April, the Steelers made another significant addition to their quarterback depth chart by selecting Pitt QB Kenny Pickett 20th overall in the NFL Draft.
Pickett was, by many accounts, seen to be the most pro-ready quarterback in the 2022 draft class. But that doesn’t mean he’s set to start for the Steelers right away as a 24-year-old rookie.
