        Russell Wilson Questionable For Week 1

        By Jared Smola | Updated on Fri, Sep 6 2024 7:56 PM UTC

        Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s opener vs. the Falcons. He experienced discomfort with his troublesome calf on Thursday and was limited again in Friday’s practice.

        What They're Saying

        Wilson on Friday: "I just felt a little tight (on Thursday). I wanted to be smart about it. Obviously, we play the game on Sunday, I'm hoping I get to be in it. Just trying to try and get ready to go. I'm trying to get my body ready to go and rock and roll. So, we're doing everything we can. ... I got to be smart and obviously, we're trying to play 20 or 21 games, and I'm trying to play in all. That's kind of my mentality and how we want to go about it."

        Penn Live's Nick Farabaugh said he's getting the "vibe" that QB Justin Fields will start on Sunday. We are too -- and are updating our projections now to put Fields under center.

        If that's the case, it'll likely mean an even run-heavier attack from Pittsburgh, with Fields taking a bunch of carries. RB Najee Harris, RB Jaylen Warren, WR George Pickens, and TE Pat Freiermuth all take a hit in terms of projected volume.

        Fields slots in as a mid-range QB2 with upside.
