Steelers Improve to 2-0 with Fields at QB

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin has confirmed that Justin Fields will practice with the starters as Russell Wilson continues to recover from a calf injury. The Steelers are 2-0 after a win against Denver, and Fields has performed mistake-free football, throwing for 273 yards and a touchdown. Despite Wilson being handed a game ball for his prior achievements, Fields' solid performance is making it challenging for Tomlin to revert to Wilson once he is healthy. Fields' growth is evident, as he showcased athletic throws and utilized the no-huddle offense, indicating increasing trust from the coaching staff. Tomlin had previously kept the starting quarterback decision under wraps until shortly before the opener, highlighting Fields' unexpectedly strong play. While Fields aims to avoid a quarterback controversy, his success may complicate Wilson's return to the starting role.
