Steelers could start Haskins

The bottom two of this list could essentially be swapped if you so desired, as both are former first-round busts that make some semblance of sense for the team in a new era of quarterback. Dwayne Haskins has done next to nothing with the Steelers this season. For most weeks he has been inactive, and the few times he has gotten a helmet he hasn’t played.

Haskins possesses a strong arm and that is about it at this point. His accuracy is hit or miss and his athleticism is mediocre. He can progress through reads on occasion but he usually forces throws to his first read when under pressure. His off-the-field issues appear to be cleaned up as of now, as there haven’t been reports like the ones he had in Washington.

While Trubisky may be the slightly better option based on the development of both, Haskins gets the nod due to him spending all of 2021 with the team. Matt Canada, like it or not, will probably be the offensive coordinator once again, so Haskins knowing the offense gives him an edge. All of that said, the Steelers would clearly be tanking for a top pick if they decided to use one of these two players as their starting quarterback in 2022.
