While Russell Wilson’s status this weekend is in limbo, starter, backup, or third-stringer, some in the media are wondering how much longer he’ll even remain on the Pittsburgh Steelers roster. Weighing in on the team’s quarterback situation this morning, ESPN’s Dan Graziano believes Wilson may not become the starter or be traded. He might end up being released.

“It’s also worth remembering Wilson’s one-year, minimum-salary contract includes a no-trade clause. It’s possible this ends with him getting released, not traded,” Graziano writes.

To be clear, it’s more speculation than true report from Graziano.
