Former NFL player Chad Johnson dropped a bombshell on his Nightcap podcast, suggesting that quarterback Russell Wilson may be on his way to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Johnson shared on the show that he has heard from a source about Wilson possibly joining the Steelers, a move that could shake up the team's quarterback situation.

Wilson, who is expected to part ways with the Denver Broncos in the upcoming weeks, had a challenging two-year stint in Denver, going 11-19 as a starter while facing mobility and performance issues. Despite turning 36 in November and his best days seemingly behind him, Wilson could serve as a short-term solution for the Steelers as they navigate their quarterback options.

Pittsburgh has been mainly considering Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph for the quarterback role, with Wilson emerging as a cost-effective potential alternative who would not require the Steelers to give up draft picks. While speculation also links Justin Fields to Pittsburgh, Johnson predicted that Fields might end up with the Atlanta Falcons.

The Steelers have been relatively quiet about their quarterback plans, but with Wilson's potential move looming, attention is expected to shift to the team's definitive quarterback strategy in the near future. As the NFL offseason progresses, the fate of players like Wilson and their new destinations will soon come to light, providing clarity for fans and teams alike.
