‘What’s Russ Going To Ask For?’: Roethlisberger Weighs In On Potential Second Contract For Wilson

Following an offseason in which the Pittsburgh Steelers completely overhauled their quarterback room, they are again faced with a similar decision. For how stable the organization typically is, it seems unlikely that they would move on from both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields to start completely new, but which quarterback will return? Both seem even less likely than neither.

The decision could come down to a numbers game. Will there be a market in unrestricted free agency to drive up either of their prices? If not, will they capitulate to Omar Khan’s shrewd contract negotiations? The Steelers appear to have some leverage, but that can quickly change if either quarterback starts getting offers from other teams.
