Russell Wilson shared interesting update on Steelers return with Adam Schefter
The Pittsburgh Steelers were one of the more surprising teams in the NFL during the 2024 season. Most NFL fans expected the Ravens and Bengals to run the AFC North in 2024, but the Steelers made some noise themselves. The Steelers won 10 games and even made the playoffs, though they were bounced in the first round. Now the Steelers have some tough choices to make this offseason, especially at the quarterback position.
Steelers QB Russell Wilson is reportedly confident that Pittsburgh may bring him back for the 2025 season. NFL insider Adam Schefter explained on a recent episode of The Adams Schefter Podcast that Wilson told him there’s a realistic chance he returns to Pittsburgh.
“I saw Russell at the Super Bowl and he still thinks despite the speculation of the contrary that there’s a realistic chance that he’s going to be back in Pittsburgh,” Schefter said. “That he’s talked about the future and what this offense and what the personnel would look like with the Steelers. He’s operating like he’s definitely interested in being there.”
Steelers fans should not get too carried away with this information. There was always a chance that Wilson would return to Pittsburgh this offseason. This is especially true because Pittsburgh does not have a realistic path to acquiring a quarterback who is better than Wilson before the 2025 season.
One report from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Tuesday claimed that the Steelers are ‘split’ on the decision between Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.
