The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Gerry Dulac writes that in all likelihood, the Pittsburgh Steelers will start the 2025 season with a new starting quarterback, and he thinks that Justin Fields will be given the job. It's the third time in the last four years that the Steelers head into the offseason with uncertainty at the most important position. Both Fields and Russell Wilson will be free agents, and it's highly unlikely the Steelers will bring them both back. With the way the season ended with five straight losses and a disconnect with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, Dulac believes the Steelers will let Wilson walk. Fields, meanwhile, is only 25 and showed improvement in his 10 games played (six starts), completing a career-high 65.8% of his passes for 1,106 yards, five TDs and one interception while adding 289 rushing yards and five more scores.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix went 13-for-22 with 144 yards and a touchdown during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. Nix added 43 yards on four carries, which led the team on the ground. The Oregon product started out hot completing a 43-yard TD to his college teammate Troy Franklin to give Denver an early lead on their first drive. However, the Broncos could not get anything going on offense throughout the rest of the game as the Bills shut the door after this touchdown. Nix relied on his top wideout, Courtland Sutton, in this contest as he saw a team-high nine targets and brought in five passes for 75 yards, which also led the team. Despite the tough loss, Nix enjoyed an excellent debut season, throwing for 3,7775 with 33 total touchdowns. After an impressive debut campaign, the former first-round selection is a rising asset in dynasty formats.
