The Seahawks sent the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback a special jersey.
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers are heading into training camp with Russell Wilson as their starting quarterback. Despite the chatter around the NFL that he's lost a step, his arrival in Pittsburgh marked the beginning of the best quarterback situation the team's had since Ben Roethlisberger retired. It may sound hyperbolic, but the Steelers have their season's hope resting in Wilson's hands.
It seems time has made the heart grow fonder between Russ and his first team. While they parted with Wilson after their relationship and contract negotiations broke down, the two sides are still amicable. The Seahawks won a Super Bowl with Wilson under center and had one of the best runs in franchise history, so it makes sense that the team wants to maintain a solid relationship.
Wilson took to his social media to shout out his former team. On a video he shared on his X account, Russ thanked Seattle for sending it to him and the reminder of all their accomplishments."Seahawks: super, super grateful for you guys sending me this," he said in the video. "Obviously, a lot of amazing memories there, and so you sending me this means the world to me. Forever grateful.
