The Pittsburgh Steelers’ decision-making apparatus within the organization has multiple layers. Team president Art Rooney II has the ultimate say on anything and GM Omar Khan and his front office staff formulate the plan and make most of the decisions, but Mike Tomlin is involved in the conversations as well given his 17-year tenure with the team. That process was likely put to work this offseason when the team moved on from former first-round QB Kenny Pickett and added QBs Russell Wilson and Justin Fields all within the first week of free agency.
All signs point to Wilson winning the starting job to begin the 2024 season, as he almost certainly gives them their best chance to compete in the short term.
