Russell Wilson, a nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback, is set to join the Pittsburgh Steelers on March 13 for a $1.2 million deal in 2024. Wilson posted a hype video for his 13th season on social media. After being informed by the Broncos on March 4 that he would be released at the start of the league year, Wilson received an early start on free agency after speaking with interested teams and making the first stop on Friday.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Wilson is set to join the team after a decline in his career. Wilson, a former Super Bowl champion, has a record of 43,653 passing yards, 334 touchdowns, and 106 interceptions. Despite competition from third-year QB Kenny Pickett, Wilson adds a dynamic not seen for the Steelers since Ben Roethlisberger. Pickett, the No. 20 overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, has gone 14-10 as a starter with 13 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Pittsburgh is now pivoting to give Wilson a shot. If Wilson can shake off his Denver years and deliver highs, the Steelers have a strong roster capable of making a return trip to the postseason, even in a tough AFC North, and possibly going beyond wild-card weekend for the first time since 2017.
