Justin Fields is no longer No. 1.
The former Ohio State quarterback will wear No. 2 for the Pittsburgh Steelers, the team announced while revealing jersey numbers for all of its new players on Thursday.

The Steelers have not issued the number 1 – which Fields had worn at Harrison High School, at Georgia, at Ohio State and with the Chicago Bears – since Anthony Wright wore it for the team during the 1999 preseason.
