From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) was limited during practice Thursday, Sept. 26.
Fantasy Spin: The Steelers continue to be cautious with Wilson because Justin Fields is playing well as the starting quarterback. Wilson probably will not be cleared to play until Fields struggles in a game or two, so fantasy players can continue to avoid Wilson.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 25.
Fantasy Spin: Wilson continues to work his way back from a calf injury but probably will not join the starting lineup unless Justin Fields starts to struggle. Wilson can be avoided in all leagues.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Justin Fields is preparing to start in Week 4, but QB Russell Wilson (calf) has not been ruled out yet, head coach Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
Fantasy Spin: It's status quo for the Steelers ahead of their Week 4 game. Fields appears to be on track to start for now, but the Steelers have yet to decide if he will keep the job for the long haul once Wilson is healthy. Assuming he gets another start, Fields is a shaky QB2 option.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) will begin the week limited at practice on Wednesday, Sept. 25, head coach Mike Tomlin said.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson (calf) is officially inactive for Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers. He has been designated as the Steelers' emergency third-string quarterback, making him eligible to play only if both Justin Fields and Kyle Allen get injured. Wilson had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. The veteran quarterback still has not yet made his Steelers debut thanks to this lingering calf issue. Even when Wilson becomes healthy enough to play again, Fields should remain Pittsburgh's QB1 until he gives head coach Mike Tomlin reasons to make a switch. This is good news for fantasy managers as Fields has more fantasy upside than Wilson, anyway.
From RotoBaller
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) has been declared inactive for the Week 3 game but will serve as the emergency No. 3 quarterback.
Fantasy Spin: Wilson has been working his way back from the injury, but the Steelers continue to go with Justin Fields as their starting quarterback. Fields probably should only be considered an option in two-quarterbacks this week.
From TheHuddle
The Pittsburgh Steelers have declared CB Darius Rush, WR Roman Wilson, QB Russell Wilson, TE MyCole Pruitt, SS Terrell Edmunds and OG Isaac Seumalo inactive for Week 3.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers OG Isaac Seumalo (pectoral) and TE MyCole Pruitt (knee) did not practice on Friday, Sept. 20, and have been ruled out for Week 3. Also, QB Russell Wilson (calf) and OT Troy Fautanu (knee) were limited and are questionable, and WR Roman Wilson (ankle), RB Najee Harris (rest), LB T.J. Watt (rest), DL Larry Ogunjobi (rest) and DL Cameron Heyward (rest) practiced in full and were removed from the injury report.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson (calf) remained a limited participant in Thursday's practice, according to Jonathan Jones of CBS. Jones further noted that Justin Fields remains in line to start on Sunday when the Steelers face the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 3. Wilson was initially named the team's starting QB back in training camp but suffered from calf tightness in the first week of September, pushing Fields to the top of the depth chart. While the Steelers have won the first two games with Fields leading the offense, he has averaged just 136.5 passing yards and 42 yards on the ground. Fields remains a high-end QB2, given his rushing upside this weekend, if he gets the starting nod.
From RotoBaller
Pittsburgh Steelers OG Isaac Seumalo (pectoral), TE MyCole Pruitt (knee) and DT Cameron Heyward (rest) did not practice on Thursday, Sept. 19. QB Russell Wilson (calf) was limited. WR Roman Wilson (ankle), RB Najee Harris (rest), LB T.J. Watt (rest) and DL Larry Ogunjobi (rest) practiced in full.
From TheHuddle
Denver Broncos QB Russell Wilson (calf) told reporters on Thursday, Sept. 19, that he is 'definitely gaining ground' and was able to do more in practice than he has recently.
Fantasy Spin: Justin Fields is likely locked in as the starting quarterback in Week 3 versus the Los Angeles Chargers, but it is anyone's guess how this thing will play out once Wilson is fully healed. On one hand, Pittsburgh might have a hard time benching the quarterback who led the team to a 2-0 start (Justin Fields). On the other hand, Wilson appeared to be the clear QB1 for the short time he was healthy during the preseason. If Wilson gets the nod beginning next week, he will likely be no better than a middling fantasy QB2.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson (calf) was limited in Wednesday's practice. After signing Wilson this offseason, all indications were that he would be Pittsburgh's Week 1 starter, despite the team's decision to trade for Justin Fields. However, Wilson has been sidelined to start the season with a calf injury and has yet to make his Steelers debut. The Steelers have already announced that Fields will start in the Week 3 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Still, they remain committed to evaluating the quarterback situation on a week-to-week basis. Fields remains a fringe fantasy starter, even with Wilson seemingly nearing a return.
From RotoBaller
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 18.
Fantasy Spin: The Steelers are not rushing Wilson back from his injury because Justin Fields has won the first two games of the season. Wilson should be avoided until he takes over as the starting quarterback.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) isn't expected to fully participate in practice on Wednesday, Sept. 18, head coach Mike Tomlin said.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson (calf) is officially inactive for Week 2, as expected. He has been designated as the Steelers' emergency third quarterback, which means he could enter the game if both Justin Fields and Kyle Allen suffer injuries and can't return. Fields is on track to make his second consecutive start, and if Pittsburgh starts 2-0, they could continue to ride the hot hand regardless of whether Wilson is healthy in Week 3.
From RotoBaller
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) has been declared inactive for the Week 2 game but will be the team's emergency third quarterback.
Fantasy Spin: Justin Fields will receive another start and was able to post decent numbers in the season opener. He can be a low-end No. 1 quarterback in some deeper leagues.
From TheHuddle
The Pittsburgh Steelers have declared WR Roman Wilson, QB Russell Wilson, S Jalen Elliott, DE Dean Lowry, SS Terrell Edmunds and OG Isaac Seumalo inactive for Week 2.
From TheHuddle
There is a possibility that Pittsburgh Steelers QB Justin Fields could remain as the team's starting quarterback even after QB Russell Wilson (calf) has fully recovered from his aggravated calf injury, according to multiple sources.
Fantasy Spin: Head coach Mike Tomlin could stick with the hot hand if the Steelers keep winning and if Fields continues to execute the team's game plan while limiting turnovers. For now, Fields should only be used as a starting lineup option in two-quarterback fantasy leagues.
From TheHuddle
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Justin Fields is expected to start the next two games as QB Russell Wilson (calf) continues to recover from calf tightness, per sources on Friday, Sept. 13.
Fantasy Spin: Fields posted pedestrian production in Week 1, with 156 passing yards, 57 rushing yards and no touchdowns. Until we see a fantasy-worthy performance out of him, Fields isn't a suggested starter.
