Art Rooney II, the owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers, indicated that acquiring a quarterback is the team's top priority, pinpointing Justin Fields and Russell Wilson as his preferred candidates. Rooney believes it's unlikely both will return, as both see themselves as starters. Wilson, who signed a one-year deal, faced injuries, while Fields helped the team achieve an impressive record early in the season. Rooney aims for a longer contract for the next quarterback, emphasizing the importance of stability in the position moving forward.
"I wouldn't close the door, but I'd say it's probably unlikely. I think both of them see themselves as starters and I don't know that they want to share the same job again next year."
"They're both capable quarterbacks, and my preference would be to sign one of them. So that'll be the priority, and I think that will give us the best opportunity to move forward."
