The Pittsburgh Steelers have completely overhauled their quarterback situation this offseason.
After a couple of disappointing seasons from Kenny Pickett, the team decided to move on this offseason. They traded him and replaced him with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.
This week they seemed to put the finishing touches on their QB room by signing Kyle Allen to be their QB3.
While they may have just put the finishing touches on the QB room for 2024, it seems there is already some chatter about what they might do at the position in 2025.
During the March 27 episode of “The Rich Eisen Show”, Eisen was discussing the contract situation of Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott, which has recently become a topic of conversation, and named the Steelers as a potential landing spot for him in 2025.
“What happens if the guy they went ahead and have given the job to with pole position doesn’t work out? What if they get a look at Justin Fields all year and say he’s not the guy? Maybe the Steelers are all in. Right now their offense costs nothing. I don’t even think it’s $15 million. They’ll have enough money to give Dak a multiple of that. I think the Steelers might be in on Dak and let him finish his career in Pittsburgh.”
The Cowboys couldn’t really ask for much more than what they’ve gotten out of the quarterback they selected in the fourth round of the 2016 draft.
He immediately proved himself as a starter, putting together a 13-3 record in his rookie season and setting the rookie record for completion percentage. He also earned himself Offensive Rookie of the Year honors and led the Cowboys to the playoffs.
