Steelers preparing for Fields to start at quarterback for Week 2, Wilson being monitored

The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing for Justin Fields to start at quarterback for Week 2, but haven’t officially ruled Russell Wilson out.

Mike Tomlin spoke to reporters on Tuesday, saying Wilson’s injury is feeling better and they’ll keep an eye on him through the week.

Wilson sat out during the Steelers’ Week 1 win with calf tightness and will not be working in totality on Wednesday.

“I focus my energy on those that are available and their readiness. I just saw Justin. He just finished a good workout here today, and excited about maybe going through a complete week with him in terms of the preparation process. But again, we’ll take it day by day,” Tomlin said.
