Despite reports of a rift between QB Russell Wilson and OC Arthur Smith, the door isn’t shut on Wilson returning and entering 2025 as the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting quarterback. In fact, beat writer Mark Kaboly thinks it’s more likely than Justin Fields. Appearing on 93.7 The Fan Wednesday, Kaboly gave the edge to Wilson to re-sign.
“I’m gonna say Russell Wilson,” Kaboly told Joe Starkey and Bob Pompeani when asked who will be the Steelers’ 2025 starter.
Ever since the season ended, Wilson has continually expressed a desire to remain with the team. His relationship with Smith might not be the best but a second year working together could develop trust and more freedom, especially knowing Wilson missed almost all of training camp with a calf injury.
