Quarterback is arguably the ultimate leadership position in professional sports, and leadership happens to be one of the biggest questions that new Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson faces. Despite the fact that he’s a been-there, done-that guy with championship hardware, many wonder if he can lead, though not if he can work.
Those questions have followed Wilson from the Seattle Seahawks to the Denver Broncos and now to the Steel City. They were less prominent in Seattle while he was there, but it was probably the main storyline with the Broncos. And now that he’s in Pittsburgh, many wonder if he can simply be one of the guys.
