Justin Fields has been taking first-team reps for the Pittsburgh Steelers as Russell Wilson deals with a calf injury. Coach Mike Tomlin confirmed that Wilson is still the frontrunner for the starting quarterback position, but Fields is gaining valuable experience working with the starting offense. This opportunity allows Fields to build chemistry with the skill-position players, which could be beneficial if he is called upon during the season.
- Fields is seizing the opportunity to work with starters while Wilson is sidelined.
- Wilson's injury appears to be minor, but Fields is making the most of his time with the first team.
