The Denver Broncos have parted ways with quarterback Russell Wilson after what was nothing short of a disastrous two years with the team following his trade from the Seattle Seahawks. 

And he's already been linked to the PIttsburgh Steelers, who decided to part ways with Mitchell Trubisky. In fact, according to reports, he's already met with the team and new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. 

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the interest between the two sides is genuine. 

“Pittsburgh’s interest in Wilson is indeed real, as was assured to me by a team source,” Fowler wrote in an ESPN+ article. “Wilson arrived at the Steelers facility on Friday afternoon and had what a source described as a ‘very positive’ meeting with the club…the Steelers were always bringing in competition. This would be that and then some, as it’s hard to imagine Wilson as anything other than a starter.”

“I’m told Wilson is eager to help his new team on the contract front and enters the free agency process looking not only for the chance to win but also a team with an infrastructure for winning and has done it consistently,” Fowler wrote. “Pittsburgh fits that mold. Let’s see how this shakes out, but the Steelers appear well-positioned.”

Just how weird would it be to see Wilson with the STeelers and competing for the starting position behind Kenny Pickett?
