The expectation is that veteran Russell Wilson will be the Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting quarterback for the 2024 season, while fourth-year quarterback Justin Fields will be in a backup role.
For many, that seems like the Steelers would be wasting Fields’ talents and playing a quarterback who is good in name brand only, and hasn’t been at his high-level self since the 2020 season.
But for Pro Football Focus’ Steve Palazzolo on the latest episode of the “PFF NFL Show” on YouTube with co-host Sam Monson, having Fields in a developmental role as a backup is quite intriguing.
