In 2024, Pittsburgh Steelers finished 10-7. Pittsburgh, which dates back to the AFC Championship in 2017, lost six consecutive playoff games. Steelers suffered a loss of 28-14 by Raven in the first round in 2024.
Last season, two QBs started at least six games in Steelers. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields have been set as a free agent in this off -season. Team owner and Chairman Art Rooney said Pittsburgh is unlikely to bring Wilson and Fields again in 2025.
What is the most likely that Steelers will sign again?
It has meaning. https://t.co/sm3nhkmfa2

Russell Wilson and Justin Fields participated in the 2024 season with a one -year contract with Steelers. Wilson worsened the calf at the July training camp. This team, who is 36 years old, is not 100%backed up in Justin Field in his first six games in the 2024 season. Fields went to 4-2 from six starts, but Russell Wilson was starting on seven weeks and jets. Despite the team’s winning record, Mike Tomlin trusted his man and played a veteran QB.
When Steelers won the first five games with Russell Wilson, Tomlin looked like a genius. But it fell quickly from the last eight games of the season, including playoffs. Pittsburgh came out in the first round of the postseason after finishing the year with five defeats. In order for Wilson and Fields to be a free agent, Steelers must make a decision in this offseason. What QB should come back in 2025?
Just three seasons, Steelers used the first round pick in Qb Kenny Pickett. He continued with Steelers and was a member of Eagles in 2024. Pittsburgh scored the 21st pick in the 2025 NFL draft. There are reports that the team is watching Jalen Milroe in Alabama. Even if the team drafts a rookie QB, you must bring a competent backup again. Russell Wilson seems to have chosen logically by Pittsburgh, despite the rough end of the season. He is an experienced QB that can start the season if a rookie is not prepared in the first week. Or the team can take a chance again in Justin Field. What will Steelers do in this offseason QB?
