After leading the Pittsburgh Steelers to victory in Week 1 while quarterback Russell Wilson sat out with a calf injury, Justin Fields is once again in line to be under center when the team returns to action against the Denver Broncos.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters on Tuesday that the team is preparing as if Fields is the starter for Sunday's game. He added that Wilson "feels better today than over the weekend" and will be evaluated after Wednesday's practice before deciding on how the rest of the week will proceed.
