Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin is considering sticking with quarterback Justin Fields, even as Russell Wilson ramps up his recovery from a calf injury. Tomlin noted that Fields' performance could influence the decision on Wilson's return, emphasizing the importance of winning and playing well. Fields has shown resilience in recent games, particularly in a close loss to the Indianapolis Colts, where he made history with impressive stats. Meanwhile, several players remain sidelined due to injuries, and Tomlin is monitoring their practice participation closely.
- Justin Fields' strong performance may lead to him retaining the starting quarterback position.
- Russell Wilson is increasing his practice participation but remains inactive for games.
- Tomlin values in-game adversity as a way to build relationships with players.
