The Pittsburgh Steelers winding up with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields in their quarterback room this season was not the grand conclusion of a master plan. They only traded for Fields because Kenny Pickett requested a ticket out of town. Looking back, however, there’s no doubt they are glad they did it.
Even if it ends up a temporary arrangement, as many assume. Justin Fields played well overall in his six starts, but Russell Wilson is taking the offense to another level. Yet both are free agents next year, so how do you retain both? You don’t, Mark Kaboly said in a mailbag session on Thursday, via X.
