Brett Mason Rudolph III (born July 17, 1995) is an American football quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Oklahoma State, where he was a three-year starter and won the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award during his last year. He was selected by the Steelers in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
He spent the 2018 season as the Steelers third string quarterback, and did not see any game action in the regular season. Prior to the 2019 season, he was promoted to the main back-up to long-time starter Ben Roethlisberger. In week 2 of the 2019 season, Roethlisberger suffered a season-ending injury, and Rudolph was named the starting quarterback in his place.
2019 Season
During the preseason, Rudolph was named the second quarterback behind Roethlisberger, eclipsing Dobbs after multiple successful preseason performances.
During Week 2 against the Seattle Seahawks, Rudolph relieved an injured Roethlisberger in the second half and threw for 112 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception as the Steelers narrowly lost by a score of 26-28. Following the announcement that Roethlisberger would miss the rest of the season due to season-ending elbow surgery, Rudolph became the Steelers' starting quarterback.[30] Rudolph made his first NFL start in Week 3 against the San Francisco 49ers. He threw 174 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in the 24-20 road loss Against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football in Week 4, Rudolph recorded his first win as a starter with 229 passing yards and two touchdowns in the 27-3 victory. On October 6, against the Baltimore Ravens in week 5, Rudolph suffered a concussion after being hit by Ravens safety Earl Thomas and was temporarily knocked unconscious, being relieved by Steelers third-string quarterback Devlin Hodges. Rudolph was cleared from concussion protocol on October 16, 2019. He returned to face the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football and had 251 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception in the 27-14 victory.
During Thursday Night Football against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11, with 8 seconds left in regulation, Rudolph was involved in a brawl involving several players from both teams. With just moments left in the game, Rudolph completed a pass to running back Trey Edmunds. Myles Garrett of the Browns then tackled Rudolph late, after the pass had been completed. While the two were entangled on the ground, Rudolph pushed down and away on Garrett's helmet. Garrett then grabbed at Rudolph's helmet and removed it. When Rudolph ran after Garrett, Garrett struck Rudolph in the head with Rudolph's own helmet. During and after this altercation, additional players came into the fray and further fighting occurred. Garrett and two other players were ejected and later suspended for the incident. Rudolph finished with 221 passing yards, a touchdown, and four interceptions as the Steelers lost 21-7. Rudolph later declined to file criminal charges, calling the situation an NFL matter. For his role in the scuffle, Rudolph was later fined $50,000 by the league.
In the following week against the still-winless Cincinnati Bengals, Rudolph struggled again, throwing for 85 yards and an interception before being benched for Devlin Hodges in the third quarter who led the Steelers to a 16-10 comeback victory. Two days later, Steelers' head coach Mike Tomlin announced that Hodges would remain the starting QB for the following week's game against Cleveland. In Week 16 against the New York Jets, Rudolph came into the game after struggles from Hodges in the second quarter, but later suffered a shoulder injury and left the game in the fourth quarter. During the game, Rudolph threw for 129 yards and a touchdown. Without Rudolph, the Steelers lost 10-16. It was revealed that he suffered a sternoclavicular joint dislocation in the shoulder and was placed on injured reserve on December 24, 2019. Overall, he started in eight out of the ten games in which he appeared, recorded 1,765 passing yards, 13 passing touchdowns, 9 interceptions, and posted a passer rating of 82.0.
