Mason Rudolph saved the seat heat for Tennessee Titans QB Will Levis. True to his phrase, head coach Brian Callahan is inserting Levis backup into the beginning lineup after recovering from a shoulder harm. Rudolph will resume his earlier position because the No. 2 quarterback Sunday in opposition to the Los Angeles Chargers.
Rudolph began the previous three video games whereas Levis received wholesome. His efficiency was spotty, throwing 4 touchdowns and 4 interceptions as Tennessee went 1-2 with him within the lineup. They secured a vital win over the New England Patriots that made Callahan genuinely emotional however Rudolph wasn’t spectacular sufficient to persuade the group to maintain him within the lineup, a calculation the Steelers made late final season even after QB Kenny Pickett received wholesome.
It follows what the Titans stated after Rudolph’s first begin, a 34-10 loss to the Buffalo Payments. The group was adamant Levis would retake the beginning job as soon as wholesome.
On the season, Mason Rudolph has thrown for 806 yards, 4 touchdowns, and 4 picks. He first changed Levis in Week 4 and completed a win over the Miami Dolphins. Levis began in Week 6 after the group’s bye earlier than his harm brought about him to overlook the following three weeks.
Signing a one-year deal this offseason, Rudolph beat out Malik Willis to be the Titans’ No. 2. Willis was dealt to the Inexperienced Bay Packers, impressing in reduction of the injured Jordan Love.
In equity, the Titans’ offense hasn’t given Rudolph many weapons and traded WR DeAndre Hopkins to the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs in October. Whereas he’s confirmed he can competently run an offense off the bench, Rudolph is finest suited as a No. 2. If he doesn’t re-sign in Tennessee, he’ll probably look for the same position with one other group subsequent season.
Maybe a reunion with the Steelers shouldn’t utterly be off the desk assuming Pittsburgh is unable to retain each Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. However after years of being spurned by the group, Rudolph would in all probability favor to go some place else than return to Pittsburgh.
