In a highly anticipated matchup, Russell Wilson was set to make his triumphant return to Denver, but unfortunately, his problematic calf injury is expected to keep him on the sidelines once again this week. This means that Justin Fields will be under center for the Steelers (1-0) as they face off against Bo Nix and the Broncos (0-1) on Sunday afternoon.
Both Nix and Fields had a tough time sustaining drives for their teams in Week 1. It will be crucial for both quarterbacks to elevate their play if they want to lead their teams to victory this Sunday.
