After a 10-3 start, the Pittsburgh Steelers lost their last four regular season games before bowing out in the Wild Card Round to the Baltimore Ravens. One of the biggest reasons for the team’s struggles was a dip in play from quarterback Russell Wilson, a player that head coach Mike Tomlin went “lone ranger” on to make the starter after he missed the first six games of the season and Justin Fields led the Steelers to a 4-2 record. Appearing on The Bill Simmons Podcast, NFL insider Albert Breer said that after how things went down with Wilson, Tomlin may not have wanted to push for QB Shedeur Sanders, a player he liked during the pre-draft process, during the 2025 NFL Draft.
