The Pittsburgh Steelers signed QB Russell Wilson to a one-year, $1.21 million contract earlier in the offseason. If you’re worried about Wilson’s arm strength with him entering his thirteenth NFL season and at the age of 35, you really shouldn’t be.
Last season with the Denver Broncos, Wilson completed six passes that flew in the air at least 40 yards past the original line of scrimmage and he led the entire NFL in that stat, according to Sports Info Solutions. Four of those six Wilson completions with 40 or more air yards resulted in touchdowns and that also led the entire NFL in that stat in 2023.
