The biggest news surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers at the moment is whether they will trade for Brandon Aiyuk. That situation is a complete roller coaster, but it is taking attention away from the Steelers’ quarterback situation, which was previously the most talked about story. Mike Tomlin has made it clear that it’s a competition, even if Russell Wilson is most likely going to end up as the winner. However, former NFL player and executive Louis Riddick is hearing that Fields could win the starting job before the season even starts.
Riddick, currently an analyst for ESPN, appeared on the Dan Patrick Show Thursday and said that Fields could be the starting quarterback for Week 1.
