During the Pittsburgh Steelers' first training camp practice, quarterback Russell Wilson sat out due to a minor calf injury, allowing Justin Fields to take over first-team reps. Fields showcased some impressive throws, including a deep pass to Van Jefferson, but also struggled during team drills, completing only two passes and experiencing pressure issues reminiscent of his time with the Bears. Coach Mike Tomlin expressed that Wilson's absence was a precautionary measure, describing it as a chance for Fields to face early adversity. Despite some highlight plays, analysts like LeSean McCoy remain skeptical about Fields overtaking Wilson as the starter, advocating for Fields to learn behind the veteran. The Steelers are optimistic about their revamped roster for the upcoming season, but Wilson's starting position appears secure for now. Training camp will continue with more practices open to the public, allowing fans to witness the team's development.
