Wherever one stands on Russell Wilson as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting quarterback, one thing is for sure, the Steelers upgraded at quarterback this offseason. Wilson’s 26 passing touchdowns last season in 15 games played are twice as many touchdowns as Kenny Pickett threw in his two-year tenure as the Steelers starting quarterback.
Wilson’s undoubtedly an upgrade in talent and he’s proven to be a playoff winner, but there’s one major area of weakness in his game that may be a little overlooked by eager Steelers fans.
On “The Herd with Colin Cowherd” on Fox Sports Radio Tuesday afternoon, Cowherd ranted about Russell Wilson’s remarkably high sack numbers throughout his career.
