Lions Won’t Rule Out Trade For Steelers QB Mason Rudolph

PITTSBURGH -- As rookie Kenny Pickett has climbed the Pittsburgh Steelers' depth chart and challenged Mitch Trubisky for the starting job, third stringer Mason Rudolph has been pushed to the periphery. The Steelers were rumored to have sought trade offers for Rudolph earlier in training camp, but no moves were ever made.

The Detriot Lions had rumored interest in adding quarterback depth to their roster ahead of the beginning of the regular season and Rudolph was reportedly one of their targets. Heading into the final preseason game, head coach Dan Campbell has not closed the door on those reports.

Dan Campbell said "somebody needs to step up" between David Blough and Tim Boyle for the backup QB job. Boyle likely to start Sunday in Pittsburgh. He also hasn't ruled out bringing in a QB if the right guy fits with Lions having the No. 2 waiver claim position.
