Quarterback Justin Fields revealed that several NFL teams, including the Las Vegas Raiders, Baltimore Ravens, and Los Angeles Chargers, showed interest in trading for him before he was ultimately acquired by the Pittsburgh Steelers. He expressed concern about joining teams with established quarterbacks.

Fields has stepped up as the Steelers' starter due to Russell Wilson's injury, leading the team to a 3-0 record. His performance has been impressive, completing 73.3% of his passes and contributing significantly to the offense.

Although Wilson is recovering, Fields may continue to hold the starting position if he maintains his winning streak as the Steelers get ready to face the Indianapolis Colts.
