The Pittsburgh Steelers' acquisition of Justin Fields, following the signing of Russell Wilson, was intended to be a gradual process. However, Wilson's recurring calf injury has forced Fields into the spotlight much earlier than anticipated.
Initially brought in to develop, Fields has received extensive first-team reps, showcasing promise despite the team's offensive challenges. Coach Mike Tomlin has noted the important learning experience between Fields and the team.
Statistically, Fields is performing well, with improved passing metrics and no turnovers in his recent outings. His ability to run adds another dimension, benefiting the Steelers' rushing attack.
Despite challenges with offensive snaps and balancing the quarterback role, Fields is gaining confidence. He emphasizes his focus on winning rather than any potential quarterback controversy, displaying strong leadership qualities among teammates.
