The Miami Dolphins are facing a quarterback dilemma after their starter, Tua Tagovailoa, suffered a concussion during Thursday night’s game against the Buffalo Bills. With Tagovailoa expected to miss significant time and possibly retire from football, the Dolphins may need to bring in another quarterback to stay competitive and push for a playoff spot. One name being discussed is Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson, who might soon be out of a starting role with his current team.
Fans and analysts have urged the Dolphins to consider signing Wilson, a veteran quarterback with plenty of experience. While Wilson has struggled since leaving the Seattle Seahawks in 2022, some believe he still has the potential to succeed in the NFL. Miami, with a “win now” approach, could benefit from adding a seasoned player like Wilson, especially if Tagovailoa doesn’t return this season.
Wilson’s extensive career includes 43,653 passing yards and 334 touchdowns, numbers that highlight his capability as a quarterback. After spending 10 seasons with the Seahawks, Wilson was traded to the Denver Broncos, where he faced challenges due to a lack of strong offensive support, including poor receivers and offensive line protection. As a result, he was unable to replicate his previous success in Denver.
Although there have been no official reports connecting the Dolphins to Wilson, it wouldn’t be surprising if Miami explored this option. With Tagovailoa’s future uncertain, adding Wilson to a roster that includes elite wide receivers like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle could help Wilson rediscover his form and lead the Dolphins to a successful season.
Wilson is currently the backup quarterback in Pittsburgh behind Justin Fields, making him a possible trade candidate. The question now is whether Miami will pursue Wilson or explore other options to bolster their quarterback position for the rest of the season.
