This Thursday the Pittsburgh Steelers will turn to Mitch Trubisky to start at quarterback when the Steelers take on the New England Patriots. Kenny Pickett had surgery on a high ankle sprain but will be out somewhere in the neighborhood of two to four weeks.
On Tuesday, starting running back Najee Harris was asked about the leadership of Trubisky. Typically when a reporter lobs up a softball like this, players take full advantage to hype them up to the press. But not Harris. Sometimes Harris’ honesty is refreshing but this time it makes us nervous.
When asked about the leadership of Trubisky, all the reporter got from Harris was, “It’s fine, I guess.” Then, when they followed up about his style, all they got was “Vocal, I guess.”
This doesn’t exactly inspire confidence in the Steelers offense to get on track this week finally. The Steelers fired Matt Canada two weeks ago and we saw something of a bounceback in week one. But last week, after Pickett went down, everything went wrong. Hopefully Trubisky does better than Harris is anticipating and can lead the Steelers to a win.
