Russell Wilson travels to meet with Steelers, had preliminary meeting with Giants

The Pittsburgh Steelers said they had "full faith" in Kenny Pickett, but maybe "full" was the wrong word to use.

The Steelers are looking around. They are bringing in Russell Wilson for a visit Friday according to numerous reports including The Athletic. The Denver Broncos announced they will release Wilson at the start of the new league year next Wednesday, but Wilson has been given permission to talk to other teams.

A visit doesn't mean the team will definitely sign the former Denver Broncos quarterback, though it's an indication of what everyone knew: The Steelers would like an upgrade over their current quarterback situation.
