Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith did not want Russell Wilson changing plays at the line of scrimmage despite the QB’s big game in the Week 13 win over Cincinnati.

It didn’t take long before reports started coming out that Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith didn’t see eye to eye when Wilson was the starter. Now, Steelers beat writer Gerry Dulac offers a bit more clarity on the details of where the two had issues.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson is one of two quarterbacks that will hit free agency this offseason. Wilson, who said on Saturday at the Pro Bowl that he was only focused on the Steelers and nothing else, hopes to return as the team’s starting quarterback.

Multiple reports surfaced after the Pittsburgh Steelers ended their season with a five-game losing streak that was capped off with a wild-card playoff defeat at the Baltimore Ravens claiming that quarterback Russell Wilson and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith "did not have a very good working relationship" and experienced "some type of disconnect" during the second half of the campaign.
