In a surprising twist in the NFL quarterback landscape, a recent report suggests that the Pittsburgh Steelers may be eyeing Sam Darnold as a potential replacement, should their pursuits of Russell Wilson and Justin Fields not pan out.

Steelers president Art Rooney II is on record saying that his preference would be for Pittsburgh to re-sign either Russell Wilson or Justin Fields. At this point, the Steelers have not decided which quarterback to bring back for the 2025 season.

Top NFL quarterbacks rarely hit the open market, but there will be several intriguing options in free agency this year. Here are the best 10.

Las Vegas Raiders are in search of a new quarterback for the 2025 NFL season and a standout player is reportedly of interest to Pete Carroll's team, amid rumors of Russell Wilson's arrival.

To say Darnold’s 2024 numbers are unsustainable is probably putting it kindly. But the current free agent quarterback class is… shall we say, thin. It includes the aforementioned Wilson and a 41-year-old Aaron Rodgers who may retire. Plus, there’s Justin Fields, Daniel Jones, Cooper Rush, Jameis Winston, Joe Flacco and Trey Lance.

Rumors continue to suggest that individuals within the Pittsburgh Steelers such as offensive coordinator Arthur Smith view re-signing backup quarterback Justin Fields as a "plan A" and bringing current starter Russell Wilson back as a "plan B."

The Pittsburgh Steelers have a big decision looming. The team seems torn between keeping Justin Fields, or Russell Wilson.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have to make a monumental decision at the quarterback position. Do they keep Russell Wilson and/or Justin Fields? Or explore another option in free agency? Yes, the Steelers qualified for the playoffs in 2024.
