Analyst: Russell Wilson Starting For Entire Season Provides Steelers With ‘No Upside’

When the Pittsburgh Steelers entered this offseason, not many people expected them to land Russell Wilson as their next starting quarterback. Even after Wilson got released from the Denver Broncos, it seemed like a longshot to expect the Steelers to sign him. However, after reportedly crushing his meeting with the team, Wilson is in Pittsburgh now. It seems like he has the inside track on the starting quarterback job, but with Justin Fields right behind him, nothing is truly certain. One analyst believes that the Steelers have nothing to gain by starting Wilson, and that Fields should be their starter.
