2023 Fantasy Outlook
Trubisky served as the Steelers' Week 1 starter in 2022 but was replaced by Kenny Pickett during the team's matchup against the Jets in Week 4. Trubisky filled in for Pickett at times down the stretch, but the 2017 first-round pick appeared in just seven games and will serve as a backup to begin the 2023 campaign. Trubisky completed 65 percent of his passes for 1,252 yards, four touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing 19 times for 38 yards and two touchdowns last season and is unlikely to be much of a factor in the first season of his two-year extension with the Steelers, as long as Pickett remains healthy.

Returns to Buffalo as backup
Trubisky agreed to a two-year contract with the Bills on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Steelers released Trubisky last month after a two-year run with the team in which the 29-year-old went 2-5 as a starter and was benched multiple times in favor of Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph. Trubisky spent the 2021 season as Josh Allen's backup with the Bills and will head back to a familiar spot, where he'll replace Kyle Allen as Buffalo's No. 2 quarterback.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Latches on with Buffalo
Trubisky signed a two-year deal with the Bills on Wednesday and is expected to serve as Josh Allen's primary backup in 2024, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Trubisky is a familiar face in Buffalo, having served in the same No. 2 capacity back in 2021. The veteran signal-caller completed only six of eight passes for 43 yards and added 24 rushing yards and a touchdown on 13 carries that season before suiting up for the Steelers the last two years. Getzenberg notes Trubisky's return is the byproduct of the good impression he made during that '21 campaign, though she also notes there will likely be some concern should he be pressed into extended action.

2017
Last we saw Trubisky he had played his way out of Chicago, benched for Nick Foles in 2020.
After a gap year in Buffalo as Josh Allen's backup (one INT on eight attempts), Trubisky signed
with Pittsburgh in March to replace the retired Ben Roethlisberger. But then the Steelers drafted
Kenny Pickett in the first round, so Trubisky might be on the bench once again. Trubisky has a
strong arm, but his deep-ball accuracy is a problem. His career completion rate on attempts of
20-plus yards is 31.3 percent - 43rd of 50 qualified QBs since 2017. The Steelers have quality
skill players, as Diontae Johnson is the No. 1 receiver, Chase Claypool is at least a useful deep
threat and TE Pat Freiermuth is an emerging red-zone target. But whoever is under center likely
will manage a run-first offense behind RB Najee Harris, should things go according to plan for
Mike Tomlin. If it's Trubisky, as expected to begin the season, he'll need to improve his accuracy, particularly downfield, given that the
Steelers aren't likely to give him a ton of passing volume or many designed runs.
