Former NFL WR Believes Justin Fields Could Play For Steelers Sooner Than Expected: ‘Stay Ready’

After reshaping their quarterback room in rather impressive fashion in just a few days, things seem pretty clear for the Pittsburgh Steelers with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields.

Wilson is the starter, Fields the backup. But there seems to be much debate about that potentially changing at some point during the 2024 season, maybe even in training camp.

That’s very unlikely, but stranger things have happened.

For former NFL wide receiver DeSean Jackson, he had one simple message for Fields during his time in Pittsburgh: stay ready.

Appearing on the “Up And Adams” show on FanDuel TV, Jackson stated that Fields won’t beat out Wilson during training camp that but he could see the field earlier than anyone expects this upcoming season.
