After the Steelers traded for former Bears QB Justin Fields, their initial plan was to keep him as a backup for veteran QB Russell Wilson.
However, Fields is now speaking up about his role on the team and explains how he is not just sitting around, but he is actively competing for the starting spot:
As heard, Fields does not plan on only being a backup QB all season long and has hopes of being on the field:
"I definitely don't have the mindset of me just sitting all year"
- Fields said
Fields also explains how Wilson is aware of Fields' mindset and is ready to battle it out for the starting QB job.
