Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson took the first team reps while Justin Fields was the backup.
took first-team reps with the offense on Wednesday, offensive tackle Dan Moore Jr. said. He did not confirm if Wilson exclusively took the first-team reps.Wilson went first in the quarterback line in individual reps, and Fields went second. Steelers head coach Mike Tolmin said that he would discuss the division of labor in his press conference Wednesday, and he would only keep any decision the team had already made in-house.
Yesterday, Tomlin stated that Wilson would be ‘in consideration’ for the starting role after he showcased his health last week and knocked the rust off following a five game absence after suffering an aggravation to a training camp calf injury. "He is in consideration this week, we’ll see where that leads us," Tomlin said. “Both guys at the quarterback position are scheduled to work tomorrow, and we’ll just walk it day by day, all geared toward putting ourselves in best position to win the football game.”
Fields has started all six games, throwing for five touchdowns and rushing for five more while only throwing one interception. He has six turnover worthy plays in the last three weeks. Tomlin said that if Fields does not start, it is not as much about him as it is about what the team believes they have in Wilson., where our team of sports betting experts has reviewed the experience, payout speed, parlay options and quality of odds for multiple sportsbooks.
