Mike Tomlin didn’t mean it as a dig towards either quarterback, Russell Wilson or Justin Fields. But even though Wilson and Fields are veterans with known talent, Tomlin couldn’t help but be impressed and surprised at their talent getting to watch it in-person on a daily basis this summer.
Speaking to Rich Eisen Wednesday afternoon, Tomlin praised the physical traits of his top two quarterbacks.
“Justin’s talents are more than I anticipated,” Tomlin told the show. “Particularly his mobility, the things that he can do and create. That was really exciting. Russ’ deep ball is even more impressive than his reputation.
