Rudolph is running out of time to prove it

He spent time with Devlin "Duck" Hodges in 2019 when Big Ben tore his UCL.

After being tied in the head by Miles Garrett, the Steelers made moves to go the other direction.

After Roethlisberger hangs Spikes, Steelers sign Mitch Trubisky to free agency

[{"selector":"#anim-3515fae5-b926-472c-ae87-7ee472ce602d [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-20.872343631731646%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

And then selected Pitt product Kenny Pickett in the 2022 NFL Draft.

[{"selector":"#anim-b343365c-22b2-4c97-a241-5e10e83cb474 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-17.49999982933859%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}]

Trubisky will hopefully keep the seat warm until the picket

And his two gloves don't get Matt ready to handle Canada's offense.

Meanwhile, Rudolph appears to have been sold a bill of goods about to win the job.
