Justin Fields Inactive for Steelers vs. Giants

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields has been ruled inactive for Monday night's game against the New York Giants due to a hamstring injury sustained in practice, leaving Russell Wilson to start. Fields had been performing well, leading the team to a 4-2 record in his six starts, but was replaced by Wilson last week who made a strong debut, throwing for two touchdowns against the New York Jets. Coach Mike Tomlin indicated the decision to rest Fields is a precautionary measure, as he will serve as the emergency third quarterback. The Steelers, who currently hold a 5-2 record, aim to improve to 6-2 against a struggling Giants team. Meanwhile, the offensive line faces challenges with injuries, further complicating the team's dynamics. The outcome of this matchup will be crucial for both teams as they navigate their respective seasons.
