REPORT: Steelers Expected to Have New Competition for Russell Wilson in Free Agency.THANHDUNG

Russell Wilson has made it very clear that he would like to re-sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025, but what’s unclear is how much he expects to make in free agency and how much the Steelers are willing to pay him. It’s also been rumored that the organization might prefer to re-sign Justin Fields rather than Wilson — although that has yet to be confirmed.

On January 22, Wilson revealed that he has already begun discussing a potential extension with the Steelers while joining the Pat McAfee Show. He also praised head coach Mike Tomlin throughout the interview, reiterating that he’d love to finish his career in Pittsburgh.

With all that in mind, a new potential Wilson suitor emerged on January 24 after former Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll was officially hired by the Las Vegas Raiders.

“With Pete Carroll taking over the Raiders, one name I’ve heard to watch at QB: Russell Wilson,” relayed NFL insider Jeff Howe (The Athletic) on X. “They’ve mended fences, per source, and Wilson could be a stopgap while the Raiders develop a long-term answer.”

They’ve mended fences, per source, and Wilson could be a stopgap while the Raiders develop a long-term answer.

The connection obviously makes a lot of sense let’s say Wilson and the Steelers are unable to agree on a new contract. After all, Wilson made a name for himself with Carroll in Seattle, winning one Super Bowl and nearly finishing off a second.

The only potential hold-up would be Wilson’s abrupt exit from the Seahawks organization, but Howe addressed that in his post, noting that the pair have since “mended fences.”

When you think about it, Seahawks general manager John Schneider eventually gave Carroll the same treatment as Wilson, moving on from the legendary coach after the 2023 season — so perhaps the two can commiserate on the fact that they were both ousted from Seattle.
