Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin made official what we all assumed when he announced at his Thursday press conference that Mitch Trubisky would be the starting quarterback against the Seattle Seahawks.

Trubisky was the Steelers big free-agent signing of the offseason. After the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger, the front office brought Trubisky in quickly to hopefully revitalize the career of the former first-round pick.

After Trubisky, look for veteran Mason Rudolph and rookie Kenny Pickett to get the bulk of the snaps. Undrafted rookie Chris Oladokun could see some clean up duty versus the Seahawks as well.

How much should Trubisky play? The Steelers haven’t had a starting quarterback play in the opening preseason game in a long time but the coaches have to get a good look at Trubisky before writing his name in pen on that regular-season depth chart.

On Satuday night the Pittsburgh Steelers will finally get back to playing football when they take on the Seattle Seahawks in the team’s first preseason game. All eyes will be on the three-headed quarterback monster for the Steelers of Mitch Trubisky, Mason Rudolph and Kenny Pickett.

This preseason will look very different than the past for the Steelers. Head coach Mike Tomlin has said if the season started today Mitch Trubisky would be the starter but the position is far from settled. The coaches are likely to employ a more even distribution of reps.

Given how quickly teams sub out players in the first preseason game there will be some strange combinations out there, making it tough for the coaches to get a good look at all three.

But we want to hear from Steeler Nation, which Steelers quarterback will impres the most on Saturday? Cast your vote and make your prediction.
