Trubisky was first selected with the No. 2 overall pick in 2017 by the Chicago Bears, though he’s played sparingly in the past few seasons. He appeared in five games last year in Pittsburgh and made two starts, but he lost both of those games while largely backing up Kenny Pickett. Trubisky was set to play on the second year of a three-year deal with the Steelers this fall, but the two sides agreed to mutually split last month. That sent the 29-year-old into free agency.

With Jack Tuttle getting another year of eligibility, he’s in the mix along with Jayden Denegal, Alex Orji, Davis Warren, and incoming freshman Jadyn Davis.
