Former Pittsburgh Steelers RB and Pro Football Hall of Famer Jerome Bettis appeared on The Joe Starkey Show on 93.7 The Fan this morning, and Bettis is clearly a big fan of Russell Wilson. He believes that Wilson has the potential to be special in Pittsburgh’s offense in 2024.
“He can still play 100 percent. And he will be effective in this offense. He’s going to be good for this offense,” Bettis said.
He thinks the only way that Wilson doesn’t succeed this season is if the Steelers want to find out more about Justin Fields and don’t roll with Wilson as their primary starter.
