Two things can be true this summer. Justin Fields is poised to be the backup behind Russell Wilson. And he can have an awesome camp and preseason, showcasing the talent that made him a first-round pick. That’s my expectations for Fields this summer.
I write this in anticipation of where the conversation might go. If Fields shines, quarterback competition talk will only heat up. At least on a national level given that’s the Steelers’ biggest headline story of the offseason. Even so, it’ll take a monumental collapse (or injury, obviously) by Wilson for the depth chart order to shift.
