They are as follows:RankPlayer1Kenny Pickett2Mitch Trubisky3Mason RudolphPickett will be the starter if he is able to overcome concu sion protocol, but Trubisky would otherwise start for the team.Trubisky has a 30-24 career record as a starter, but he was just 1-3 in his four starts for the Steelers. He completed 59.5 percent of his pa ses for 653 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in those four contests and the Steelers struggled to move the ball with him. As such, it could prove difficult for the offense to find succe s with Trubisky in even despite his late-game succe s against the Buccaneers.MORE: Additionally, third-string quarterback Mason Rudolph would be activated and serve as the backup behind Trubisky if Pickett can't play in Week 7. Rudolph has a 5-4-1 record in 10 career starts but isn't active for Sunday's game.It's unclear who is the Steelers' emergency quarterback, so if the team deals with injury i sues at quarterback, Pittsburgh will have to get creative on offense.  Jaden Harrell Jersey
