Russell Wilson Joins Pittsburgh Steelers After Leaving Denver Broncos

Published: 11 March 2024 at 06:06

Russell Wilson has chosen to join the Pittsburgh Steelers at the start of the new league year, signing a friendly one-year deal after a meeting on Friday. Wilson, who had a less-than-ideal two-year run in Denver, will have $38 million of his salary paid by the Broncos in 2024-25. The Steelers are looking at Wilson to compete for the QB1 position against Kenny Pickett, with Wilson feeling confident he can start Week 1. The move is seen as a low-risk, high-reward opportunity for the Steelers, with OutKick founder Clay Travis calling it an attractive signing for Pittsburgh.
