Russell Wilson, you are a Pittsburgh Steeler. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Steelers intend to sign Wilson in a move that will certainly heat up the team’s quarterback situation.
The move can’t be made official until Wilson is released by the Broncos, which will take place at the start of the new league year on Wednesday.
Wilson confirmed the news on Twitter moments ago.
Thursday, the PPG’s Gerry Dulac reported the team planned to meet with Wilson before the start of free agency. And now, they evidently have a deal.
Now 35 years old, Wilson was released by the Broncos two years into his five-year, $245 million extension.
