Steelers Sign Former Dolphins Quarterback Skylar Thompson

The 27-year-old QB joins Pittsburgh on a futures contract as the team faces uncertainty at the quarterback position.

Skylar Thompson, previously with the Miami Dolphins, has signed a futures contract with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Thompson, a seventh-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, played three seasons with the Dolphins but struggled with consistency and injuries.
The Steelers currently have three quarterbacks, including Russell Wilson, Justin Fields, and Kyle Allen, all of whom are eligible for free agency in March.
Russell Wilson, who signed a one-year deal with Pittsburgh, has expressed interest in staying but acknowledged that his future with the team is uncertain.
Thompson is expected to compete for a roster spot, potentially as a backup, as the Steelers evaluate their quarterback options for the 2025 season.
