The Pittsburgh Steelers have utilized QB Justin Fields to supplement QB Russell Wilson over the last two weeks, bringing Fields in the game for some short-yardage plays and read options, and Fields also threw a pass late in the fourth quarter on a key third down against the Browns. In his weekly press conference today, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that the package will continue and that it’s something opposing defenses need to watch for.
“He’s a viable and capable dude, and it’s something our opponents will have to be aware of. When we use it or how much we utilize it will be dependent on plans week-to-week,” Tomlin said via the team’s YouTube channel.
