As speculation swirls about the Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback plans for 2025, one man isn’t backing down from the challenge—Mason Rudolph. With Aaron Rodgers still weighing his future and the Steelers unsure whether the future Hall of Famer will wear black and gold, Rudolph is training like a man on a mission.
“I will surpass Aaron Rodgers,” Rudolph said confidently during a workout session. “Not because I’m trying to copy his career, but because I believe in what I bring to the table—consistency, leadership, and hunger.”
Rudolph, 28, surprised many by leading the Steelers to a late-season playoff push in 2024, showing poise, smart decision-making, and command of the offense. Now, with the team reportedly considering other quarterback options—including Rodgers and trade targets like Sam Howell—Rudolph is refusing to fade into the background.
“Every throw, every rep, I’m treating it like it’s my job to lose,” he said. “I respect Rodgers and what he’s done in this league, but this is my team now. I’ve been here. I’ve earned this shot.”
Steelers fans have rallied behind Rudolph’s grit and underdog mentality, and with the NFL Draft approaching, all eyes are on whether Pittsburgh will hand him the reins or make another big move.
One thing’s clear—Mason Rudolph is ready to fight for his future and write a new chapter in Steelers history.
