Justin Fields is vying for the starting quarterback position for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but head coach Mike Tomlin has named Russell Wilson the starter for the team's final preseason game. Fields, who was traded to the Steelers from the Bears, has shown flashes of his potential but has struggled to translate practice success into game performance, leading to just three points scored in his eight drives this preseason. Despite Wilson's past successes, he is viewed as having a short leash due to his declining performance and recent calf injury, which has limited his playtime. Fields acknowledges that the decision of when he gets to play is not his to make, focusing instead on giving his best effort daily. The Steelers have not officially named a Week 1 starter, leaving room for Fields to potentially take over if Wilson struggles early in the season. Overall, Fields believes he has demonstrated his capabilities and is prepared for an opportunity to lead the team.
