Craig Carton: Russell Wilson Will Be NFL’s Comeback Player Of The Year With Steelers

Just a few short years ago following the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger, the Pittsburgh Steelers seemingly had an opportunity to trade for Russell Wilson. Ultimately, they didn’t overpay for Wilson like the Denver Broncos did. Two years later, Denver have moved on, and Wilson is set to become a Steeler after agreeing to a one-year, $1.21 million deal Sunday night, which will become official at the start of the new league year on Wednesday.

Though Wilson isn’t what he once was in Seattle, he remains a good quarterback overall, even after a fallout in Denver in large part due to a clash of personalities with head coach Sean Payton.
