Draft Note by John Paulsen
The former first-round pick showed progress in his third season, setting career-bests in completion percentage, interception percentage, passing yards per game, passer rating, and sack percentage. Early word is that Pittsburgh assured Russell Wilson that he's the starter, so if things go well for Wilson, Fields may not see much action in 2024. Head coach Mike Tomlin said that Fields “oozes talent and potential,” so the door is certainly open for Fields to take over as the starter at some point during the season.
