Russell Wilson has had a wild offseason. The veteran QB was cut from the Denver Broncos and eventually signed with the Steelers on a veteran minimum contract.

Justin Fields is a former Chicago Bears first round pick who now plays for the Steelers in Pittsburgh under Coach Mike Tomlin.

It was not an ideal campaign for the Pittsburgh Steelers last season.

The Steelers are making a huge change at the quarterback position this year as they have brought in veteran Russell Wilson and former Chicago Bear Justin Fields to the fold.
