Throughout his career, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has made a name for himself, holding onto the football, making plays out of structure and off-script, and thriving in that backyard style of football that has led him to a remarkable career to this point.
But at this point in his career, entering his age 36 season (he turns 36 on November 29), Wilson will have to change up his game a bit if he wants to extend his career, especially in the Steel City.
While the Steelers improved the offensive line in front of him via the 2024 NFL Draft, landing offensive tackle Troy Fautanu in the first round and center Zach Frazier in the second round, Wilson will have to avoid holding onto the ball in the pocket, cutting down on sacks and quarterback hits in the process.
