Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin revealed that he made the decision to bench quarterback Justin Fields for veteran Russell Wilson on his own.
Tomlin explained the choice during a conversation with Fox Sports' Jay Glazer.
"I spoke to Mike Tomlin about it last night and he said, look, 'I went lone ranger on it.' [Terry Bradshaw], you're not the only one against this, there were a lot of people inside that organization who were as well," Glazer said on Fox NFL Sunday.
"And he said, 'look, if it doesn't work out, I'll take the heat, I'll shoulder the blame, no problem,'" Glazer added.
