Justin Fields chose the Jets over Steelers' offer

Justin Fields has chosen to join the New York Jets instead of the Pittsburgh Steelers, despite a strong offer from the Steelers. He signed a two-year contract worth $40 million, with $30 million guaranteed. The Steelers wished to keep Fields as their quarterback but were unable to convince him to stay. ESPN's Jeremy Fowler mentioned that while the Steelers made a competitive offer, Fields felt more drawn to the Jets. His connection with former Ohio State teammate Garrett Wilson and the new coaching staff played a big role in his decision. Now, the Steelers are searching for their next quarterback. They are currently in talks with Aaron Rodgers as a potential replacement. This decision comes amidst a limited pool of quarterback options, leaving the Steelers with pressing needs to fill before the upcoming season.
