Fields, who came to Pittsburgh via trade from Chicago in the offseason, started the first six games of the 2024 and led the Steelers to a 4-2 record. He threw for 1,106 passing yards, five touchdowns, and one interception and added over 200 yards on the ground and another five touchdowns.

Steelers quarterback Justin Fields reportedly has one demand if he’s going to re-sign with Pittsburgh, and that’s a realistic shot to start. That wasn’t the case last season when Russell Wilson was in pole position to start and eventually replaced Fields in Week 7 after he recovered from his calf injury.
