Russell Wilson’s Rumored Move to the Steelers Finds Pat McAfee’s Backing Amidst Hidden Connection: “The Perfect City for Him”

The Broncos Country had a sorry season, and they let Russell Wilson go. After a laborious negotiation and harassment, the quarterback might finally be on the cusp of a breakthrough. There were a lot of rumors about Wilson joining the Pittsburgh Steelers. That clock seems in motion now.

Pat McAfee pointed out something interesting about what’s happening in Russell Wilson’s life. After getting his $39 million from the Broncos, Wilson might play for the Steelers for a league minimum. However, the logistics are not clear yet because the negotiations are in a nascent phase.

McAfee emphasized Steelers Radio host Gerry Dulac’s post on X, highlighting that Wilson and the Steelers are interested in each other, and the Pittsburgh team is trying to set up a meeting with the former Broncos QB. McAfee pointed out that Wilson might meet the Steelers’ management before Monday.

He also highlighted that Wilson will be playing for a league minimum of $1.2 million, allowing his future team to cultivate better talent around him. This also makes him more welcome to any team he is interested in. McAfee also pointed out that the Wilson-Pickett combo might work out.

He passed the buck to Tone Diggs, who shared that Wilson had 28 TDs and eight interceptions in one season, which took the Steelers two years to achieve as a team. McAfee intervened and mentioned that the Steelers are the best team for Wilson, judging by the “way he operates.”

“If Kenny Pickett plays well or shows any glimmer of hope, and then Russell Wilson goes in there and doesn’t play great, it’ll be loud. But if Russell Wilson goes in and wins, that is the perfect city for him,” said McAfee while speculating about Wilson. But Wilson joining the Steelers makes more sense as the saga unfolds.

Wilson and the Steelers go way back

Another post from Gerry Dulac on X states that Wilson and his wife have a stake in Evolution Advisers, a joint venture by Acrisure, which owns naming rights to the Steelers Stadium. The couple is a founding partner and equity owner in the company.

The post on X said, “Russell Wilson already has a connection with the Steelers. He and his wife, Ciara, a Grammy Award-winning singer, are founding partners and equity owners in Evolution Advisers, a joint venture formed by Acrisure, which owns the naming rights to the stadium.”

So, it would be a brilliant move for Russell Wilson. It’s a step that makes sense and is motivational enough for Russell Wilson to take a leap of faith.
