Former Steelers WR Antonio Brown endorses Mason Rudolph as starting quarterback
It seems that every Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver past and present are chiming in about the Steelers quarterback situation. We’ve already heard Diontae Johnson endorse Mason Rudolph to be the starter next year, George Pickens called Rudolph the GOAT and now former Steeler Antonio Brown joined the party.
Brown went on Twitter and gave fans a shot to ask him some questions and one was a two-parter. First, who would he have start at quarterback and how many times would he target Pickens? Brown was definitive in naming Rudolph as the starter and said Pickens should see 16 targets per game.
Mason and at least 16 targets about 4 a quarter ⛽️ https://t.co/MxExTBWiTy

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has already said he wants the team to re-sign Rudolph and had nothing but positive things to say about his play at the end of the season. Rudolph should have some options in free agency and without assurances he will be the starter in Pittsburgh in 2024, he might move on for a better opportunity.
