Steelers Could Sign Longtime Rival QB If Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson Fall Through

Quarterback Joe Flacco has been a Pittsburgh Steelers nemesis throughout his career, serving as the starter for the rival Baltimore Ravens from 2008 to 2018, when he was eventually supplanted by Lamar Jackson. While he hasn't started more than eight games in a year since leaving Baltimore, Flacco's not ready to hang up his cleats just yet, and according to ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio, he could be in play for the QB job in Pittsburgh.

The Steelers have primarily been attached to two other veterans: Aaron Rodgers and last year's Pittsburgh starter, Russell Wilson. However, there's no guarantee that they come away with either player. Rodgers could sign with the Minnesota Vikings or stay in the New York metropolitan area and play for the Giants, while Wilson is in the mix for the Giants and Cleveland Browns.
