A five-game losing streak won’t splash cold water on Mike Tomlin’s affinity for Russell Wilson. Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers’ historic collapse to the 2024 season, Tomlin could run it back with Wilson in the hopes of a better 2025. Sharing his insight on the Steelers’ future at quarterback, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo thinks all love isn’t lost between Wilson and Tomlin.
“Russell Wilson’s best path back to the Steelers’ roster in 2025 is through Mike Tomlin, who was certainly his biggest supporter from the time that he realized we can get this guy for a veteran minimum deal, bring him on the roster, and potentially compete and have a starting quarterback for that number while the Broncos pick up the tab,” Garafolo said on Tuesday’s episode of The Insiders.
