Who Should I Start? Mason Rudolph or Kyler Murray

Friday, August 22, 10:43 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph completed six of his eight pass attempts for 36 scoreless yards and an interception in Thursday night's 19-10 preseason win over the Carolina Panthers. Rudolph took the field for the team's first three offensive possessions and could not get much of anything going. The Steelers punted twice in the first quarter before Rudolph opened the second period with an ill-advised throw to Ke'Shawn Williams that Carolina picked off. Rudolph's brief showing was quickly outshined by teammate Skylar Thompson, who led Pittsburgh on three straight scoring drives. Nonetheless, the 30-year-old Rudolph should be expected to maintain QB2 duties heading into the regular season as the most experienced backup on the roster, especially if rookie Will Howard (finger) is placed on IR.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (foot) is officially listed as questionable ahead of the Week 7 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Murray is in danger of missing his second straight game due to a foot sprain. He was limited in all three practice sessions this week. The Cardinals are likely going to wait and see how he feels closer to game-time before they make a final decision. Jacoby Brissett could be asked to make his second straight start this weekend. He completed 27-of-44 passing attempts for 320 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the loss to the Indianapolis Colts. There could be some low-end streaming value here if Brissett is asked to make another start.
