In just one week, quarterback Russell Wilson will make his first regular-season start with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wilson was the Steelers’ marquee free-agent addition of the offseason. Pittsburgh signed Wilson from the Denver Broncos to replace Kenny Pickett as the starter and in turn traded Pickett to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Wilson is excited to get to work for the Steelers and shared her own personal hype video on Social media on Sunday. If you needed another reason to be excited about this week’s showdown against the Atlanta Falcons, this video might do it for you.
Wilson has had a stellar NFL career but his production fell off in his two seasons with the Denver Broncos. Wilson spent his first 10 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks.

Wilson dealt with a calf injury for a good chunk of the preseason and training camp and saw limited reps in the team’s final two preseason games.
