Steelers Predicted to Sign 10-Time Pro Bowl QB to Replace Russell Wilson
The NFL free agency period has begun, but a couple of major names at the quarterback position have yet to find a home. While Sam Darnold has inked a deal with the Seattle Seahawks and Justin Fields took his talents to the New York Jets, two Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks are still available, Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. Wilson spent the last year with the Pittsburgh Steelers while Rodgers spent the last two seasons with the New York Jets.

In this scenario, Rodgers would replace Wilson and get to play alongside a wide receiver corps with DK Metcalf and George Pickens. USA Today writer Nick Brinkerhoff shared his Steelers prediction in one of the site’s latest free agent articles. He also explained that retirement could be a possibility for the future Hall of Famer quarterback.

He would be joining a Steelers organization that hasn’t had a losing season under head coach Mike Tomlin, spanning nearly two decades. Pittsburgh capped off the season with a 10-8 record, including a playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens. While the Steelers had quality quarterback play last season, under the leadership of Wilson, the addition of Rodgers may push Pittsburgh to a deeper run in the postseason.
