The Pittsburgh Steelers are one step closer to officially signing QB Russell Wilson. After agreeing to terms Sunday night, the Denver Broncos have made Wilson a free agent, releasing him Wednesday night. Now free to sign with any team, he should ink his one-year deal with the Steelers in short order.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter tweeted Wilson’s official release, noting the Broncos are designating Wilson as a post-June 1 cut to help spread out the cap hit associated with his release.
