Kenny Pickett (ankle) ruled out for Steelers in Week 17; Mitch Trubisky to back up Mason Rudolph
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett will be inactive Sunday in the team's Week 17 game against the Seattle Seahawks.
What It Means:
Mason Rudolph was always going to be the starter for Mike Tomlin's team in a must-win game in Seattle. However, who would back him up remained in question coming into the weekend. Pickett has now been ruled out due to his ankle injury, so it'll be Mitch Trubisky who serves as QB2.
Our models project Rudolph for 204.1 passing yards, 1.0 touchdowns, 0.9 interceptions and 12.7 FanDuel points.
