Breaking News:Mason Rudolph just sacked his agent in quest to resign for the Steelers

This offseason may be getting a little repetitive for followers of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Through the second half of January and all of February, pundits connected the team to numerous quarterbacks. The most popular choices have been Russell Wilson and Justin Fields

If the Steelers are interested in either, though, they first have to see if those quarterback’s current organizations are ready to depart with them.

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton implied while speaking to the media on February 27 that their decision on Wilson will happen sooner rather than later.

We go through the combine week here. Next week, I think Tuesday, Wednesday, we’ll be in meetings with ownership. And so I expect that we’re going to know fairly quickly,” Payton told reporters at the NFL combine on February 27, via Pro Football Talk’s Myles Simmons. “There’s a couple of factors here. Obviously, the cap projections came out. We’re further down the road with the draft class, obviously the pro free agents.

So, I would anticipate it within the next two weeks.”

If he does become available, NFL Network’s Bucky Brooks projected Wilson to return to the “championship-caliber” play he displayed earlier in his career if he joined the Steelers.

He can be a championship-caliber quarterback on the right team. But it’s not going to be because of him,” Brooks said. “It will be because he is driving the bus. He’s playing a managerial role. Russell Wilson has value. He’s started in this league for a long time. He’s played at a high level.

“And even though the last two years haven’t been what we thought, last year wasn’t a complete failure for him.”
