Can he make the cut?
Former 12-year NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky, who retired after a season as Jared Goff's backup on the Los Angeles Rams in 2017, offered a surprising take in response to an X quiz about whether Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson or Los Angeles quarterback Matthew Stafford is more Pro Football Hall of Fame-worthy.At this phase in their careers, Stafford is significantly better, yes.
Now, however, the 35-year-old Wilson is rumored to be competing against another quarterback castaway, ex-Chicago Bears signal caller Justin Fields, for the right to start in Pittsburgh. While 36-year-old Stafford, the No. 1 pick out of Georgia in 2009, has only been named to a Pro Bowl team twice. He was also the NFL's Comeback Player of the Year while with the Detroit Lions in 2011 and made the Detroit Lions All-Time Team. But Stafford is still firmly installed as a starter on a fringe Super Bowl contender this year, and could conceivably continue to rack up Pro Bowl appearances for at least the next few years.
