While both QBs Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are set to be free agents this offseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers, it seems as if the Steelers intend to keep at least one of them around for the future. Per NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport, Russell Wilson’s performance over the last six games has “gone a long way” toward making him the team’s quarterback of the future.
“While 2025 is a long way away and plenty of things can happen, sources say Pittsburgh’s starting QB for next season is likely already on the roster. Russell Wilson has gone a long way toward putting himself in position for that role with his performance since taking over the starting job for the AFC North-leading Steelers,” Rapoport wrote Sunday morning.
