Pittsburgh Steelers lose out on another quarterback option
Another quarterback option is off the market for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Former Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance is signing a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers to compete with Taylor Heinicke for their backup job behind Justin Herbert.
That deal will be worth up to $6.2 million, but that is likely heavily laced with incentives and is a cheaper deal for a player unlikely fully guaranteed to make the final roster.
In free agency, Lance looked to be a young option with some upside, and that could have been appealing to a team like the Steelers, even if he is a wild card dart throw. Lance, the former third overall pick by the San Francisco 49ers, has only started five games in his entire NFL career.
The 49ers gave him a chance in his second year in the NFL, but a broken ankle would pave the way for Brock Purdy to take that mantle, and Lance was out of a job by that point. His athleticism and arm strength make the tools intriguing, even if they have never come around to pop in the way they should have.
