Speaking on ESPN's First Take, former MVP and Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton said the Steelers should move on from Wilson, handing the future to Fields after this season

After weeks of speculation, the Pittsburgh Steelers have reportedly made their final decision regarding Russell Wilson's contract and his role as the team's quarterback.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are stumbling heading into the playoffs. Pittsburgh is 10-6 heading into Week 17 and is on a three-game losing streak. Despite their recent struggles, it seems that Pittsburgh has not lost faith in QB Russell Wilson.

The Pittsburgh Steelers faced some serious question marks at the quarterback position entering 2024. They looked as though they had come up with a great plan, though, as Justin Fields went 4-2 though the first six games and veteran Russell Wilson stepped in to win six of his first seven starts.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson is playing on a one-year deal with his third team. Here are the details:

The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently sitting at 10-5 in large part thanks to quarterback Russell Wilson. While he didn't start the season due to a calf injury, the 36-year-old eventually replaced Justin Fields in the lineup,

In Wilson's first seven starts, during which the Steelers went 6-1, he threw 12 touchdowns and three interceptions,w ith a rating of 103.9. Wilson is 36 years old, and given his struggles, Pittsburgh might well consider moving on from him.

The Pittsburgh Steeler s are going to pay a quarterback this offseason. More than likely, that quarterback will end up being Russell Wilson, who has played well this season and helped spring the Steelers to a 10-4 record atop the AFC North.

Included in the gifts were a $10,000 gift card for Airbnb, which can be redeemed anywhere in the world, a custom Louis Vuitton duffle bag in Steelers colors, custom-made shoes from Wilson's Good Man Brand and a bottle of his wife Ciara's TenToOne rum.

The Pittsburgh Steelers knew that they needed to revamp the quarterback position to be true contenders again. They did so by getting two players with a big chip on their shoulders and a lot to prove.
