Steelers QB Mason Rudolph Out For Ravens Game: Report
Rudolph was injured during the Steelers loss to the Jets on Sunday.
PITTSBURGH, PA - Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will miss the teams regular season finale against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting. Rudolph suffered a shoulder injury in the Steelers' 16-10 loss to the New York Jets.
Rudolph completed 14 of 20 passes for 149 yards and a touchdown against the Jets after replacing Devlin Hodges, who was benched after throwing his second interception of the game. Hodges returned to action after Rudolph's injury.
Rudolph likely would have started against in the Ravens in a game the Steelers need to win to have any hope of a playoff spot. Hodges now will start and presumably be backed up former Denver Broncos quarterback Paxton Lynch, who is one the Steelers practice squad.
