The Pittsburgh Steelers, like many teams, find themselves embroiled in a quarterback controversy. Fans have been vocal about their opinions, but the greatest quarterback in Steelers history, Terry Bradshaw, has now weighed in on the debate.
In a conversation with TMZ Sports in Los Angeles, Bradshaw made it clear where he stands in the debate between Justin Fields and Russell Wilson. “Fields has played well enough to keep the job, in my opinion,” Bradshaw declared. This statement comes as a surprise to many, as Fields is a relatively new addition to the team, having previously played for the Chicago Bears.
Fields has been impressive in his performances for the Steelers so far this season. Bradshaw noted that the young quarterback has shown consistency and skill, throwing five touchdowns and running for five more. “I’m gonna stay with Fields,” Bradshaw affirmed. “I think he’s played really good. He’s such a great athlete, he can throw. … I think he just fits the team he has right now.”
As Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin contemplates his options, Bradshaw’s endorsement of Fields carries weight. The decision on who will be the starting quarterback for the Steelers is one that will have significant implications for the team’s future. Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how this situation unfolds.
