Keeping that in mind, Rudolph received some potentially bad news following the team's preseason finale against the Carolina Panthers.

One big takeaway from the Steelers preseason finale vs. the Panthers was whether Skylar Thompson should usurp the QB2 role from Mason Rudolph.

Scotty Miller has played his way onto the final roster with an outstanding summer. It’s hard to envision the team keeping anyone else other than these five, though Ke’Shawn Williams made a spirited push for the final roster and is a practice squad lock.
