The Miami Dolphins are reportedly interested in trading for Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph. As the Dolphins prepare for the 2026 season, starting quarterback Malik Willis shines while backup options falter, leading to speculation about acquiring Rudolph. Quinn Ewers struggled in the preseason opener against the Washington Commanders, and his recent groin injury worsens the situation. The Dolphins may pursue Rudolph, who has playoff experience, as a reliable backup in response to Ewers’ performance and injury. The situation at quarterback for the Steelers is complex, as they have multiple options including rookie Drew Allar, who impressed in his debut.
