Steelers QB Russell Wilson is receiving the first-team reps at practice this week, putting him in line to start Sunday night's game vs. the Jets. Justin Fields has been the QB for the first six weeks and helped Pittsburgh to a 4-2 record, but Wilson will now get his shot.

Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Justin Fields. But Wilson’s calf is fully healed and now he gets his shot."

Wilson will be on a much shorter leash with Fields' success, however, and could be pulled if things go awry.
For fantasy, Wilson should be an upgrade for WR George Pickens and TE Pat Freiermuth with a bit more passing likely, though the offense will still be rushing focused.
