00:00 Like I get it that that's what somebody inside the building says and maybe that's somewhat of a belief right now and but I think more more so than not it's just a publicity stunt.
00:09 It's just a this is the Steelers making it look good making it look like they're all in on Russell Wilson which they should be.
00:14 They should be all in on Russell Wilson.
00:16 That guy gives him an opportunity to win.
00:18 He's a veteran, but I don't know what's going to happen.
00:20 Nobody has any idea what's going to happen.
00:22 Everybody a month a week ago two weeks ago was talking about, you know, is Russell Wilson going to go to a new team and bring the last two years in Denver?
00:29 Is he going to bring the first eight years in Seattle?
00:32 Who are you going to get out of Russell Wilson?
00:33 And I think that's still a question mark and I don't know that you know who you're going to get and I think you have to wait to find that out.
00:39 And if you do get the first eight years of Russell Wilson and he leads it to a Super Bowl and you do all these crazy things then you look at this and you say, well, okay, why would you not bring Russell Wilson back?
00:50 But at the same time, how much is he going to cost?
00:52 How much does it hurt your team?
00:54 Omar Khan is that that's the thing with Omar Khan.
00:57 There is no there's nothing here.
00:58 Like Omar Khan is all about how do I win?
01:01 How do I make this team better?
01:02 He's not going to sign you because he just that's the right thing to do.
01:06 Kevin Colbert would have signed you because that's the right thing to do.
01:09 He would have but we would have never been in this situation.
01:11 It would have been Jacoby Brissett and Kenny Pickett because it would have been somebody that wouldn't threaten Kenny Pickett and there would have been no issues and this would have been drama free and the Steelers would have stunk in 2024, but it's not where they are.
01:22 Omar Khan's different GM.
01:24 I don't know.
01:26 You know, my thoughts were exactly what yours were.
01:28 It's early. It's too early to think about something like that.
