Fowler: Some In Steelers Organization ‘Comfortable’ With Justin Fields Starting In 2025

Justin Fields has seemingly had support inside the Pittsburgh Steelers’ building throughout his first year. That hasn’t faded as the team nears free agency and has a critical quarterback decision to make. Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, “some” inside the team facility are hoping Fields is the passer who returns.

“Some in the Pittsburgh organization are comfortable with Justin Fields being the team’s QB in 2025. He has upside and more mobility at this stage than Russell Wilson, the Steelers’ other free agent passer. But as one NFC executive pointed out, Fields didn’t seem to have great chemistry with receiver George Pickens, so it’s possible that could play a part.
