Steelers Stick with Justin Fields as Russell Wilson's Return Remains Uncertain

Coach Mike Tomlin confirms Fields will start Week 3, with Wilson still sidelined by calf injury.

  • Justin Fields has led the Steelers to a 2-0 start, filling in for the injured Russell Wilson.
  • Fields has completed 69.8% of his passes and has not turned the ball over in his two starts.
  • Coach Mike Tomlin stated that Wilson is not yet ready for full practice, cementing Fields' role for Week 3.
  • Former NFL players Jeff Saturday and Ben Roethlisberger support continuing with Fields as the starter.
