Summary

Chris Carter, NFL and NCAAF analyst, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast. The Pittsburgh Steelers will have a big quarterback race on their hands during their training camp. But will Kenny Pickett, Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph have to prove to win? A big factor could be the connection with tight end Pat Freiermuth. Ben Roethlisberger struggled to throw down the middle of the field in 2021, but any quarterback who can do that in 2022 might have a leg up in Matt Canada's offense. And the best way to do that will be for Freiermuth to be a featured part of that offense to help open up the run game for Najee Harris. That, and how the Steelers' quarterback coaches Mike Sullivan and David Corley can help Pickett develop into a starter more quickly.
