Mike Tomlin Told Justin Fields To ‘Challenge His Unit’ To Clean Up Penalties Against Broncos

The Pittsburgh Steelers may have scored a touchdown in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos, but their offensive effort may have been even uglier than it was in Week 1. That’s a direct result of all the penalties they committed. Mike Tomlin was not happy after the game with those mistakes, and he recently revealed that he challenged Justin Fields to step up as a leader on that unit and try to get them to clean things up.

“At some point in the game, I went up to [Fields], I told him to challenge his unit in terms of cleaning up their play so we could get out of the stadium and end the game,” Tomlin said via the team’s YouTube channel.
