There’s an extended approach to go till the Steelers take the sector in Week One and Russell Wilson shall be beginning that march with the within monitor on the beginning quarterback job.
That was the prevailing thought because the Steelers signed him following his launch by the Broncos and it didn’t change as soon as the Steelers accomplished a commerce with the Bears to amass Justin Fields this month. Affirmation of the state of affairs got here from head coach Mike Tomlin on the league conferences on Sunday.
Tomlin stated that Wilson is within the “pole place” and that the group has been “clear within the pecking order” in the case of letting Fields know that he’ll have an opportunity to compete once they really feel it’s the proper time.
“[Wilson’s] simply received a variety of expertise by way of what it takes to be the man over the course of a 12-month calendar and I simply suppose that that’s one thing {that a} youthful man like Justin may study from,” Tomlin stated, through Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com.
Wilson will get the prospect to play higher than he did in Denver the final two seasons. If he can’t, his edge in March most likely gained’t imply a lot to a Steelers group that’s making an attempt to win a playoff sport for the primary time since 2017.
