Former NFL Scout Says Steelers Would Be Crazy To Not ‘Entertain Signing Sam Darnold’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are once again faced with a dilemma at quarterback this offseason. Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are both pending free agents, and there’s no guarantee either of them will be re-signed. That means the Steelers could sign an outside free agent to be their starting quarterback again. Unfortunately, there aren’t many great options. Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold might be the best option, and former NFL scout John Middlekauff believes the Steelers should seriously consider signing the former first-round pick.

“I think the Steelers would be high on drugs if they didn’t entertain signing Sam Darnold,” Middlekauff said recently on his 3 & Out podcast.
