Former Steelers Quarterback Russell Wilson Interviews for Head Coaching Position

Former Steelers Quarterback Russell Wilson Interviews for Head Coaching Position
World Sports · 09:09:50 - Friday, 6 November 2026

Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has interviewed for a head coaching position, according to a report from SB Nation. The 37-year-old veteran signal-caller, who spent the 2024 season with Pittsburgh after a decade with the Seattle Seahawks and a brief stint with the Denver Broncos, is exploring a transition to coaching following his playing career.

Wilson, a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and Super Bowl XLVIII champion, has long been regarded as one of the NFL's most cerebral quarterbacks. His potential move to the sideline would follow a path taken by several former players who leveraged their on-field experience into coaching roles.

Details regarding which team or level of football Wilson interviewed with were not disclosed in the initial report. The interview took place as the NFL coaching carousel begins to take shape ahead of the 2027 season.
