Russell Wilson isnt Steelers’ ‘missing link’ [Video]

University of Pittsburgh alum Louis Riddick doesn’t believe Russell Wilson is “the missing link” for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“I don’t think it’s a sure-fire lock that he’s the starter in Pittsburgh,” Riddick said a day before Pitt’s Blue and Gold game at Acrisure Stadium.

The former safety, turned ESPN NFL analyst joined The Fan Morning Show on Friday.

Riddick says he believes things will play out well for Justin Fields, who was traded to the Steelers during the offseason.

“Russ isn’t the missing link in Pittsburgh,” said Riddick. “This is not Tom Brady coming in here and all of the sudden, he’s going to establish his own way of doing things and kind of take this team to another level. This isn’t Peyton Manning when he went to Denver. So, people need to go ahead and get that straight in their mind, that this isn’t what that is.”
