2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
Despite investing a boatload of draft capital and cash into Wilson, the Broncos unceremoniously tossed the former Seahawk star aside this offseason. Though his numbers were strong in 2023 with 29 total touchdowns, only eight picks, and a top-10 passer rating, he never seemed to be capable of running Sean Payton's offense the way he wanted, taking the 4th most sacks in the NFL (45), and constantly drawing the ire of his coach. Pittsburgh was more than happy to snap Wilson up for the league minimum as they have decided to completely remake their quarterback room. Wilson will have every opportunity to take and hold this job as he's certainly an upgrade over whatever the Steelers threw out at quarterback last season. Unfortunately, a Justin Fields shaped shadow looms, and the Steelers staff won't hesitate to make a move if Wilson falters. With conservative for Falcon head man Authur Smith in the fold as the new O.C., and a very raw receiver room, there doesn't seem to be much fantasy upside with Wilson. At this stage of his career the Steelers hope he can at least protect the ball and stabilize the position, as the days of willing his team to win are long gone. The specter of Fields and the upside depth at this fantasy position is too much to consider Wilson as anything more than a low end QB2.

Injury Justin Fields will start at QB for the Steelers
Russell Wilson out with calf injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Sep 8, 11:22 am

Pittburgh Steelers
BREAKING: The #Steelers plan to start Justin Fields at QB vs the #Falcons. Russell Wilson is still dealing with a calf issue that the team felt was too risky to play on after an examination this morning. (Jordan Schultz on X)

FFToday's Take: We were trending in this direction since Friday but now it's official. Fields can be a fantasy force given his rushing ability so he's worth the roster spot in case Wilson's calf is a lingering issue. He's probably more of mid-range QB2 in Week 1 against the Falcons until we see how much Arthur Smith is willing to trust him throwing the ball.


Injury Russell Wilson listed as Questionable, calf injury
limited in practice Thursday, Friday
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Sep 6, 7:48 pm

Pittburgh Steelers
From @NFLGameDay Kickoff: It appears more likely that Justin Fields starts on Sunday for the #Steelers than Russell Wilson, though Wilson will be examined Saturday. (Ian Rapoport on X)

FFToday's Take: Wilson was added to the injury report Thursday with a calf issue and was listed as a limited participant on Friday. Reading the tea leaves, it appears that Wilson is going to sit this week which means Justin Fields is likely to get the start against the Falcons. Fields rushing ability puts him on the fantasy radar but he would be an uncomfortable play given his shortcomings as a passer.


Injury Russell Wilson limited in practice Thursday, calf injury
Same calf that bothered him in pre-season
By: Mike Krueger | Thu Sep 5, 2:38 pm

Pittburgh Steelers
Something to watch for Sunday: #Steelers coach Mike Tomlin told reporters that QB Russell Wilson reported some calf tightness and is going to get checked out by doctors. He was limited in practice. (Ian Rapoport on X)

FFToday's Take: Wilson was bothered by a calf injury in camp so this will be something to watch as we get closer to Sunday. For now, there are no indications that he will miss Week 1. If he did, Justin Fields would be the starter at quarterback for the Steelers.
