Justin Fields Sends 6-Word Message as Russell Wilson Moves Into QB1 Role

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Justin Fields seems to have lost his starting job despite doing just about everything imaginable to keep it across six starts to begin the season.

Russell Wilson , now healthy after a calf strain sidelined him for the first month and a half of the campaign, has assumed QB1 duties in practice.

"The Steelers plan to give Russell Wilson first-team reps in practice this week, putting him in line to make his season debut and start Sunday night against the [New York] Jets ," Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported . "Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Justin Fields, but Wilson’s calf is fully healed and now he gets his shot."

Later in the day, Fields took to Instagram to post a message.

And while the 25-year-old didn't address his demotion directly, the ideas he communicated about teamwork and success were a clear indication of where his mind is at.

"God is good," Fields captioned a photo of himself celebrating with a couple of teammates during the team's win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6. "Great team dub. 💫"

Fields has been the consummate teammate during the team's 4-2 start. The QB has tallied 1,106 yards, 5 TDs and 1 INT while completing approximately two-thirds of his pass attempts. He has also produced 231 rushing yards and 5 TDs on the ground.
