Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin named Russell Wilson as the starting QB for the Week 1 game against the Atlanta Falcons but he also, quite directly, hinted that Justin Fields could play as well.
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin as much as admitted so in an interview with Rich Eisen. "My friend Raheem Morris better be ready for a Justin Fields package," said Tomlin, "too much talent to be sitting around watching."
Justin Fields had possibly the best game of his career last year against the Falcons when he led the Bears to a 20-point victory over the Falcons while going 20-32 for 268 yards, throwing for 1 TD and rushing for another.
