He wasn’t supposed to be the starting quarterback this season, at least this early, for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but fourth-year quarterback Justin Fields answered the door when opportunity knocked.
With starting quarterback Russell Wilson going down with a calf injury again just two days before the start of the season, Fields stepped into the starting role and hasn’t looked back.
The Steelers sit at 3-1 and Fields is coming off of two very good performances offensively against the Los Angeles Chargers and Indianapolis Colts. Though the Steelers split those games, Fields continues to grow and take real strides overall for the Steelers under first-year offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
