The Pittsburgh Steelers are likely to name Justin Fields as their starting quarterback for the 2025 season. Fields, who was traded from the Chicago Bears, led the team to a 4-2 record in six games this year. Previously, the Steelers planned to extend Russell Wilson's contract after a one-year deal. However, following a disappointing end to the season, that plan may no longer be viable. With limited options available, the Steelers are expected to focus on Fields as their primary choice for quarterback moving forward. Both Fields and Wilson are free agents, and the team must make a decision soon.
