Russell Wilson made it very clear that he would love to re-sign as the starting quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025. The only issue — it’s beginning to appear increasingly likely that the Steelers have turned the page to Justin Fields.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette insider Gerry Dulac seemingly confirmed that the Steelers are expected to move on from Wilson while breaking down the roster on January 18.

“Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are free agents, and it is highly unlikely both will be re-signed,” Dulac began.

Continuing: “When Wilson and the Steelers agreed to a one-year, veteran minimum contract in March, it was done so with both sides intending to sign a longer deal after the season. But, with the way the season ended with five consecutive losses and a disconnect existing with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, that deal might not materialize.”

“Wilson was brought here to help end the playoff victory drought, and it didn’t happen,” Dulac reminded. He also added that “bringing in another veteran quarterback does not make sense.”

“That’s why Fields, in all likelihood, will be given the job,” the veteran reporter concluded. “He’s only 25, and he showed big development from his stay in Chicago.”
