The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing uncertainty at the quarterback position as they head into their season opener against the Atlanta Falcons. Initially, Russell Wilson was named the starter by coach Mike Tomlin, but a calf injury has now put his status for Week 1 in question. Wilson aggravated the injury during practice on Thursday, leading to his listing as 'questionable' for the upcoming game.
Despite the injury, both Wilson and backup quarterback Justin Fields are preparing as if they will play. Wilson, who is in his first season with the Steelers, mentioned feeling discomfort during drills on Thursday and has been receiving treatment to be ready for Sunday's game.
