Steelers All 90: Why Was Pittsburgh the Place for QB Tanner Morgan?

Tanner Morgan signed with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent but after Mason Rudolph's return, his spot on the roster is likely gone.

Man I hope Ibrahim makes the roster and gets at least one NFL contract. That dude deserves it

In 2023 Gophers are 68th in total earnings for players in NFL (lots of young guys just starting to make money) and 55th in total kids in NFL (22) via statcast.

Pete Carroll says former Gopher Boye Mafe is the most improved player in Seahawks camp​

Shooter chimes in:

— Ex-Gopher Tanner Morgan is the No. 4 QB in Steelers camp and getting few reps. Mo Ibrahim, who wore jersey No. 24 with the Gophers, is No. 33 with the Lions.

Charley Walters: How Nick Bosa’s impending deal could make Justin Jefferson richer

It’s unclear whether Jefferson wants to be the highest-paid non QB in the NFL. But if he does, Bosa’s contract will raise his price tag.

I too hope the Jordan Love experiment fails simply as a Vikes fan, but that there is funny!

Update with Chuck Filiaga, Saints picked him up with waiver wire.

Mariano Sori-Marin was waived by the 49ers, but has been working out with the Falcons.

This Friday 8/11 at 6 PM (CST) Steelers play the Bucs

Maybe we’ll get to see Morgan rotate in during the 4th quarter.

Tanner Morgan Making Most Of Opportunity With Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback is taking advantage of his limited shots at training camp.

This article sounds like Tomlin is high on TM and Steelers just may keep a 4th QB on the practice squad since Rudolph is only on a one-year deal! Hope he plays well tomorrow.
