Mason Rudolph reclaims No. 2 jersey with Steelers

Mason Rudolph has returned to the Pittsburgh Steelers and reclaimed his old jersey number, No. 2. The number became available after Justin Fields left for the New York Jets. Rudolph previously wore No. 2 from his draft in 2018 until his departure to the Tennessee Titans last season. He had options but chose to rejoin the Steelers. In 2024, Rudolph had a record of 1-4 as a starter, with nine touchdowns and nine interceptions. He previously helped the Steelers reach the playoffs in 2023.
