When the Pittsburgh Steelers first signed veteran quarterback Russell Wilson in free agency, the question about his ability to fit into the culture and style in the Steel City was a big one, considering the baggage Wilson was seemingly going to bring as a former franchise quarterback in Seattle and Denver, as well as the brand he was — and is.
So far though entering Week 14 of his first season with the Steelers, Wilson has been a seamless fit with not only the Steelers, but the city itself.
Wilson was quickly voted a team captain and since entering the starting lineup in Week 7 after recovering from a calf injury, his leadership and experience has helped take the Steelers to another level, especially offensively.
