LATROBE, Pa. -- Despite being very limited with a calf injury during the first half of training camp, quarterback Russell Wilson is ahead of Justin Fields for the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback job, coach Mike Tomlin said Wednesday.

The Steelers released their first depth chart Tuesday night, listing Wilson as the starter and Fields second.

"You guys saw the depth chart that I released yesterday," Tomlin said. "That is real."

Wilson, however, won't participate in Friday's preseason game against the Houston Texans.
