Just a week before the Steelers kicked off their 2024 season, Justin Fields found himself thrust into the starting quarterback role. The starter, Russell Wilson, aggravated a calf injury, and as a result, Fields got a chance to play. He’s been able to use this period as an audition and has done a solid job. Fields is playing well through six games, and he’s got the Steelers in a tie for first place in the AFC North with a 4-2 record.
However, Fields does have his limitations as well. There are still moments where the offense sputters, and with Wilson now healthy, Fields’ starting job is called into question.
