Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has interviewed for the head coaching vacancy at North Carolina State University, according to a report published Wednesday. Wilson, who played for the Steelers during the 2024 season, appeared in the AFC Wild Card playoff game against the Baltimore Ravens on January 11, 2025, at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, Maryland.

The 36-year-old veteran signal-caller is exploring a transition to coaching after a 13-year NFL career that included a Super Bowl victory with the Seattle Seahawks and nine Pro Bowl selections. NC State is searching for a replacement after Dave Doeren's departure earlier this month.
