‘Not Going To Be A Great Passer’: Cris Carter Believes Justin Fields Hasn’t Won QB1 Job Yet

Related Topics: Justin Fields, Cris Carter

Justin Fields is posting a career-high 73.3 completion percentage this season for the Pittsburgh Steelers. It’s only been three games, but that number is significantly higher than his 61.3 career percentage. He’s coming off his best performance of the season, and he’s shown substantial improvement as a passer in each game.

Despite his strong start and the Steelers’ 3-0 record, Pro Football Hall of Famer Cris Carter doesn’t believe that Fields has done enough to win the starting job for good. Carter joined The Stephen A. Smith Show on Tuesday and said that Fields is not a “save the franchise” quarterback.
