Steelers coach Mike Tomlin announced that Russell Wilson is considered the starting quarterback for Pittsburgh, with Justin Fields set to compete for the position. Tomlin emphasized Wilson's experience and skills, giving him the edge in the competition. Wilson, a nine-time Pro Bowl quarterback, was signed by the Steelers after being released by Denver.
The Steelers made significant changes to their quarterback room, trading Kenny Pickett to Philadelphia and acquiring Fields from Chicago. Mason Rudolph and Mitch Trubisky departed in free agency. Wilson, who led Seattle to a Super Bowl title, brings a wealth of experience to the team.
Fields, known for his talent and potential, will have the opportunity to learn from Wilson and compete for the starting role. Tomlin expressed excitement about Fields' future development under Wilson's mentorship.
In another move, the Broncos released Wilson, incurring a substantial salary cap hit. Coach Sean Payton expressed confidence in Jarrett Stidham as Denver's potential starting quarterback and hinted at a possible trade for a high draft pick.
