The Pittsburgh Steelers overhauled their quarterback room in the 2024 offseason, with the move to sign former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson getting most of the attention. The move to acquire Wilson has been generally lauded as a great one by the media, and seen as a low-risk high-reward play, given the fact he is on a veteran minimum contract, but it’s caused the trade for Justin Fields to go under the radar a bit.
Fields is also a buy-low move, as he was acquired for just a 6th-round draft pick, that will turn into a 4th if he plays 51% of snaps in 2024.
