Steelers QB options: Will Pittsburgh find big name to replace Ben Roethlisberger?
As Ben Roethlisberger made official the retirement the Pittsburgh Steelers and their fans had expected for much of this season, the storied franchise now finds itself at a crossroads at the most important position on the field.
Just more than 18 years ago, the Steelers used the 11th overall pick of the draft to draft Roethlisberger. But how will they go about finding his replacement?
Coach Mike Tomlin said recently that “all options are on the table” when it comes to finding the Steelers' next starting quarterback.
In-house options could include Roethlisberger’s backups Mason Rudolph and Dwayne Haskins. But Rudolph has his limitations, and questions remain about Haskins, who spent his first season in Pittsburgh as the third-string quarterback.
