Steelers
- Regarding the Steelersโ quarterback situation between Justin Fields and Russell Wilson, Dan Graziano of ESPN reports people around the organization have been pleased with Fields and feel he is executing their game plan well.
- Graziano could see the Steelers sticking with Fields if they continue winning and making good decisions. However, he also reports there wonโt be โmuch of a discussionโ if Wilson is healthy enough to play.
- Although ESPNโs Jeremy Fowler agrees it would be difficult to bench Fields if the Steelers go 3-0, he points out that Pittsburghโs offense has just one touchdown in 21 drives.
- Based on his talks with people within the Steelers, Fowler thinks Wilsonโs command of the offense will give him another chance at being their starting quarterback.

- Tomlin also mentioned they are preparing to start Fields: โWeโre readying ourselves around Justin. Weโll stay in that mindset until something happens. Hypotheticals are a waste of time.โ (Pryor)
- Tomlin had the following statement on the QB position: โMy position regarding the pecking order and the depth chart has not changed guys, and it wonโt until the other guy gets healthy and then weโll give it real consideration. Until then, I wonโt speculate.โ (Pryor)
- According to Aaron Wilson, the Steelers worked out three cornerbacks including C.J. Henderson, DโShawn Jamison, and Quindell Johnson.
- Of this group, Pittsburgh signed Jamison to their practice squad.
