Study: How Successful Are Justin Fields And Russell Wilson At Targeting Tight Ends?

Not long after the Pittsburgh Steelers named Arthur Smith their new offensive coordinator, I took a look at how he uses tight ends. The point of that exercise was largely to see how TE Pat Freiermuth could be used in the new-look offense. At that point, the results were quite promising because Smith loves to use his tight ends.

Then came the complete overhaul of the quarterback room. Russell Wilson is currently in “pole position” heading into the offseason workout schedule. Yet many people, including ESPN’s Louis Riddick, think Justin Fields will come out on top in the competition eventually.
