It's been an offseason of change for the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have completely revamped their quarterback position by bringing in both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, while trading Kenny Pickett and allowing Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph to walk via free agency. 

Meanwhile, they've also hired former Atlanta Falcons head coach Arthur Smith as their new offensive coordinator, replacing the terminated Matt Canada, who was let go last season. 

As far as Steelers legend Troy Polamalu is concerned, it was a "wild" offseason of change that will go a long way toward changing the culture of the team. 

“It is wild, it’s unprecedented, I could say,” Polamalu explained. “We could say that. It’s not like anything our program, our organization has seen. But I think it’s exciting, too. There has been a lot of change with Kevin Colbert [retiring as GM], we have the scouting department changing. Those kinds of things have shake-up culture.”

“I’m really excited for Justin and Russell," he continued. "I actually met Justin Fields one time. And to be honest, I didn’t know it was him. I was just like, ‘It’s a football player I want to say hi to him.’ But here’s what’s funny about it. When I left, I was like, ‘I met that linebacker over there.’ I pointed and [a friend] was like, ‘No, no, that’s Justin Fields, the quarterback for the Bears.’ He’s huge. These guys are different these days.”

“It’s going to be awesome for Steelers Nation this year,” he said.

Steelers fans, are you looking forward to watching the revamped team in the upcoming 2024 season?
