Due to a camp injury, Wilson began the season as the unexpected backup to Justin Fields, and for about a month it appeared as if he might not get the job back. Eventually, though, Mike Tomlin decided to see what he had in his veteran, replacing Fields with Wilson and reaping the rewards. Wilson’s involvement opened up the passing game and led the Steelers to plenty of surprising success. That peaked with Wilson’s 414-yard, three-touchdown performance in a road win over Cincinnati, striking fear in the hearts of other AFC contenders. They soon learned there wasn’t much to fear, though, because Pittsburgh’s offense has cratered since then, losing the last four games and falling short of 18 points in each of the defeats. Wilson has made some curious decisions and even his reliance on George Pickens — especially in third-and-long situations — is proving unreliable. We may have already seen the ceiling for Wilson in 2024 and beyond, and while the Steelers are headed to the playoffs, their future under center remains uncertain.
