The Pittsburgh Steelers’ quarterback situation is anything but settled. QB Russell Wilson was supposed to start Week 1 against the Atlanta Falcons. Instead, his calf tightened up only days before the season opener. The Steelers held him out as a precaution which meant Justin Fields got the start.
Fields didn’t blow anyone away against his hometown Falcons. He only attempted 23 passes (completing 17 of them for a completion percentage of 73.9) and only threw for 156 yards. He did run the ball 14 times for 57 yards as well. But he did exactly what was needed to help the Steelers win.
