Breer: More Likely Steelers Retain Justin Fields Than Russell Wilson

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in an eerily similar spot to this time last season. They exited the playoffs in the Wild Card Round and are unstable at the quarterback position. QB Russell Wilson stepped in as the starter in Week 7 and looked good early. But he was at the helm of an offense that failed to score more than 17 points in a single game during the season-ending five-game losing streak.

Now, last year, they had one quarterback under contract heading into 2024, Kenny Pickett. This year, the only quarterback under contract for 2024 is Skylar Thompson, whom the Steelers just signed to a one-year contract on Tuesday.
