NFL rumors: Russell Wilson headed to Steelers, per 6-time Pro Bowl receiver

Could we already know where the star quarterback will end up? Could Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson be headed to the Pittsburgh Steelers?

Regardless, head coach Sean Payton benched Wilson for the last two games of the season in order to avoid paying a games played bonus in Wilson’s contract. It is widely assumed that the Broncos will part company with the quarterback at some point in the offseason.

The Steelers could use an established quarterback after they struggled with their offensive production throughout much of the season. Kenny Pickett has been the team’s starting quarterback, but when injuries short-circuited his season, the Steelers went with backup Mitch Trubisky and Mason Rudolph.Trubisky failed badly and the team has already parted company with him, but Rudolph gave the Steelers a lift and they earned a spot in the AFC playoffs before falling to the Baltimore Ravens.
