The scale on which the Pittsburgh Steelers remade their quarterback room without using a first-round pick is quite staggering. However, how they remade the room leaves them in a bit of a future bind. The three veteran quarterbacks the Steelers brought in (Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Kyle Allen) are all on one-year contracts.
The Steelers are banking that one of Wilson and Fields will prove themselves worthy of a longer-term contract with their play. People wondered if the team would negotiate a deal with either quarterback before the season kicked off. After all, the Steelers are notorious for not negotiating contracts mid-season.
