QB Russell Wilson to the Steelers
With Sean Payton and the Broncos organization seeking to go to the draft for the Quarterback position, Wilson to the Broncos will go down in history as one of the worst trades in NFL history. Wilson would enter free agency before quickly agreeing to terms with the Steelers.
This bad blood between Wilson and the Broncos has been in talks for the whole 2023 season, and with the Broncos finally moving on, it is a end of a chapter. Wilson’s contract will continue to haunt the Broncos, however the Steelers will only pay $1.2 million for one year of Wilson.
On the other hand, 1st rounder Kenny Pickett hasn’t been playing up to expectations with Pittsburgh, and with a deep Steelers defense, the Steelers needed veteran leadership at Quarterback. Russell Wilson will spark a lackluster Steelers offense, and get the Steelers to a playoff run.
