Devlin Hodges: Cut by Pittsburgh
Devlin Hodges was waived by the Steelers on Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.With the Steelers picking up a familiar face off waivers in Joshua Dobbs on Sunday, they elected to make room on the roster by cutting Hodges. The 24-year-old played eight games as a result of an injury to Ben Roethlisberger and poor play from Mason Rudolph, and he completed 62.5 percent of his passes for 1,063 yards last year.

Steelers' Devlin Hodges: Makes minimal impact vs. Ravens
Devlin Hodges completed 9 of 25 pass attempts for 95 yards during Sunday's 28-10 loss to the Ravens.Even while down a few starters, the Baltimore defense gave Hodges fits as he completed just 36 percent of his passes and averaged an anemic 3.8 yards per attempt. He managed to avoid throwing an interception, but he lost a fumble and missed numerous throws that could have kept drives alive. This lackluster effort caps an eventful rookie season for Hodges, who played in eight games as a result of injuries and poor play from Ben Roethlisberger and Mason Rudolph. Hodges completed 100 of 160 passes for 1,063 yards and his 5:8 TD:INT indicates he may not be the long-term answer under center, and he will likely be battling for a roster spot come training camp.

Steelers' Devlin Hodges: Will start in season finale
Devlin Hodges is set to retain the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback job for Sunday's season finale in Baltimore with Mason Rudolph (shoulder) unlikely to be available Week 17, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Already on a short leash after a four-interception showing in the Week 15 loss to Bills, Hodges was benched in the second quarter of the Steelers' 16-10 loss to the Jets over the weekend after tossing two more picks. Rudolph stepped in to complete 14 of 20 attempts for 129 yards and a touchdown before injuring his left shoulder, affording Hodges the opportunity to re-enter the contest. With Rudolph set to miss time and third-stringer Paxton Lynch apparently not viewed as a viable starting option versus the Ravens, Hodges will get another chance to try and redeem himself as Pittsburgh aims to keep its faint playoff hopes alive.

Steelers' Devlin Hodges: Putrid in crushing loss
Devlin Hodges completed 11 of 17 passes for 84 yards while throwing two interceptions without a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Jets. He also rushed once for no gain.Hodges got benched for Mason Rudolph in the second quarter after throwing his second interception. Rudolph came in and threw Pittsburgh's only touchdown of the game but exited with a shoulder injury, paving the way for an ineffective Hodges to reenter the game. The team will likely opt to start Rudolph in the must-win Week 17 game against Baltimore if he's healthy, but Hodges would get the call if Rudolph's unable to play. Even with the Ravens likely resting many starters to prepare for the playoffs, it will be best to avoid Hodges, given his 1:6 TD:INT over the past two games.
