Veteran quarterback Mason Rudolph is returning to the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team that drafted him in 2018, on a two-year deal, multiple outlets reported Thursday.
Rudolph spent last season with the Titans. He appeared in eight games, starting five of them, and was 1-4 as a starter for Tennessee, who tied for the NFL's worst record (3-14). He completed 64 percent of his passes for 1,530 yards with nine touchdowns and nine interceptions.
The rest of Rudolph's career has been with the Steelers, largely as backup, since being drafted in the third round.
In 18 starts (29 career games), the 29-year-old Rudolph has a 9-8-1 record, completing 437 passes for 4,615 yards with 28 touchdowns and 20 interceptions.
In 2023, in a fill-in role, he led the Steelers to a 3-0 record to end the season, propelling them into the playoffs. They lost 31-17 to the Buffalo Bills in the wild-card round.
The Steelers were quarterbacked last season by Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, both signed to one-year deals as free agents. Fields has since signed with the New York Jets, and Wilson reportedly is visiting the Cleveland Browns and New York Giants this week.
Pittsburgh has only former Miami Dolphins backup Skylar Thompson signed at quarterback as it reportedly waits for four-time MVP Aaron Rodgers to accept or decline an offer.
