The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing a crucial decision at quarterback, and it appears that head coach Mike Tomlin is at odds with the team’s brass over who to choose.
According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, there are those within the Steelers organization who prefer Justin Fields over Russell Wilson, citing age and mobility as key factors. However, Tomlin is said to have a “loyalty” to Wilson, which could influence the team’s decision.
The Steelers signed both Fields and Wilson to one-year deals in 2024, and now they must decide which quarterback to bring back for the 2025 season. Wilson had a Pro Bowl season, but Fields showed promise before being sidelined with a calf injury.
The disagreement between Tomlin and the Steelers’ front office could have significant implications for the team’s future. Will they choose to go with the younger, more mobile Fields, or will they stick with the veteran Wilson? Only time will tell.
