Dan Orlovsky: Steelers Will Be ‘Meaningful In December’ Because Of Justin Fields

Though it came in a loss, one in which he made a couple of mistakes that ultimately cost his team, Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields’ performance on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts was pretty remarkable.

He threw for 312 yards and a touchdown and added 55 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 10 carries, becoming the first Steelers quarterback to ever do that in a game.

It’s disappointing that the historic effort came up just short in a loss, but for former NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky, who appeared on ESPN’s SportsCenter Monday morning, Fields has to be the starter for the rest of the season.
