JUST NOW: Formal Steelers top QB is back and…

Mason Rudolph, the quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers, had no idea if he would have a job during the next regular season going into the 2023 summer.

He was even thinking about switching careers.

In 2024, Rudolph faces no such issue.

The only thing left to decide is who he will play for next summer.

When his contract expires, he may choose to explore free agency, or he and the Steelers may attempt to negotiate a return.

The Steelers appear to have told the quarterback that they want him to remain in Pittsburgh, though it’s unclear what they want to do at quarterback during the offseason.

Rudolph said to Ramon Foster during an interview on “The Ramon Foster Show” that Omar Khan and Mike Tomlin had expressed their want for him to return for the upcoming season.

Yes, that was enjoyable. Rudolph said of his former teammate, “I visited with Mike T and Omar both, and… it was so early, like three or four days after we played our last game, and there’s a lot neither side knows.” “When they expressed their desire for me to return, I got the impression that they meant it and that they wanted to work with me going forward. I’m glad to hear that. However, as you pointed out, there are a lot of unknowns, and January is still early, so who knows what will transpire?
