Tomlin: Mason Rudolph will start for Steelers in Week 18

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will start Sunday in the team's Week 18 game against the Baltimore Ravens.

What It Means:

The Steelers are in a must-win situation in Week 18. And in that game, it'll be Rudolph who draws the start at quarterback for Mike Tomlin's crew. The head coach has been impressed by the Oklahoma State product's performance over the last two weeks--both wins--and they'll look to keep the momentum going. Kenny Pickett (inactive last week with an ankle injury) and Mitch Trubisky will battle it out for the No. 2 quarterback spot on Saturday.

Our models project Rudolph for 189.7 passing yards, 1.2 touchdowns, 0.7 interceptions and 13.3 FanDuel points.
