The Pittsburgh Steelers have not resolved their quarterback situation as they had hoped. QB Russell Wilson started hot once he took over as the starter in Week 7. But he could not get the team over the hump in the late stages of the season, ending the year on a five-game skid, including the playoff loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Justin Fields led the team to a 4-2 start, but it wasn’t spectacular. He limited mistakes and managed the games.
That’s more than what many people expected after Fields’ tenure with the Chicago Bears ended, though. And former Steelers OT Max Starks was keen to see how Fields looked in Pittsburgh.
