Justin Fields has made the most of his time as the starting quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers with Russell Wilson hurt. He’s had flashes of brilliance during practices, but he’s still struggled with being consistent. In the team’s first preseason game of the year, his issues became more evident. He still has an opportunity to win the starting job, but insider Tom Pelissero of NFL Network believes Mike Tomlin will let Wilson be the starter until he absolutely can’t anymore.
Appearing on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, Pelissero spoke about how patient Tomlin is with players and coaches.
