For most of the past few weeks, it’s felt like the Pittsburgh Steelers were going to get a deal done with Justin Fields before free agency opened. Now, that seems less sure. Recent reports indicate Fields is likely to test free agency to gauge his value. That might leave the Steelers considering other options at quarterback. It sounds like Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold could be one player they target.
“While Aaron Rodgers is the biggest name, Sam Darnold will probably get the biggest deal on the quarterback market,” Insider Albert Breer wrote in a Sports Illustrated article released on Sunday.
