Mason Rudolph, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, recently revealed that he had prepared a backup plan in case his NFL career didn't pan out. After leading the team to victory in his first start in over two years, Rudolph admitted to working on his resume during the offseason. This was the first time he had updated it since his freshman year at Oklahoma State. Despite not throwing a single pass in 2022, Rudolph hit free agency and realized his NFL options were limited
He wanted to have a Plan B and discuss it with his family. Luckily for Rudolph, the Steelers brought him back for another season as the No. 3 quarterback. Following his impressive performance against the Bengals, he has been given another start this weekend against the Seahawks
This offseason, Rudolph plans to explore his future and not wait around when his playing career ends. With a degree in marketing, he is considering a career in commercial real estate, inspired by his father's involvement in the field. In other news, running back Najee Harris has a special connection to this weekend's game against the Seahawks. Although he graduated from high school in northern California, Harris spent part of his childhood in Seattle, where his father currently resides. Being in close proximity to Lumen Field, he grew up rooting for both the San Francisco 49ers and the Seahawks
Having Marshawn Lynch as a mentor adds to the significance of playing against his childhood idols. Despite never having set foot inside Lumen Field before, Harris is excited to experience the loud and energetic atmosphere created by the Seahawks' 12th man. He looks forward to playing away and appreciating the unique venues of other teams.
