Russell Wilson has finished his visits to the Cleveland Browns and the New York Giants without receiving the contract he expected. All of this is happening while the Pittsburgh Steelers prioritize Aaron Rodgers.

A few days ago, the New York Post pointed out that Wilson had not had any talks with Pittsburgh during the entire free agency, so his options were reduced to the Browns, the Giants, and with a very low probability, the Tennessee Titans.

Although Russ feels he can win another Super Bowl, the reality is that the market is increasingly limited, and if he wants to keep playing, he may have to accept a backup role elsewhere.

Is Russell Wilson a free agent?

Yes. Russell Wilson is a free agent, so he can talk to any team without any restrictions. The veteran signed a one-year contract with the Steelers in 2024, but Pittsburgh decided not to renew it.

Through his social media, Wilson has expressed his intention to keep playing, and retirement is not an option for the former Super Bowl champion with the Seattle Seahawks. However, time is running out for him.
