For the last few weeks, ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith has railed against the Pittsburgh Steelers under head coach Mike Tomlin, voicing his frustrations about the Steelers’ offense and the play of quarterback Justin Fields, stating time and time again that he’d put Russell Wilson in the lineup once he’s healthy.
But after Sunday’s performance against the Los Angeles Chargers in the 20-10 win to move to 3-0 on the season, Smith is singing a different tune.
During an appearance Monday on ESPN’s “First Take,” Smith stated that he’s changed his mind regarding the Steelers’ quarterback situation and would keep Fields in the lineup because he “loved” what he saw from the fourth-year quarterback Sunday at Acrisure Stadium.
