Pittsburgh Steelers Star Sounds Off on Russell Wilson, Justin Fields

Following a pair of woefully inconsistent seasons from Kenny Pickett , Mason Rudolph, and Mitchell Trubisky, Pittsburgh revamped the quarterback room this offseason by trading for Justin Fields and signing Russell Wilson.

Warren says everything about the offense and the Steelers’ outlook has changed as a result.

Pittsburgh Steelers’ QB Situation ‘Night and Day’

Beyond Wilson’s Super Bowl experience, or Fields’ upside as a 25-year-old former first-round pick, Warren believes that the offense finally has a strong presence in the huddle and behind center.

“It’s a night and day difference with their leadership,” Warren said on Cameron Heyward’s podcast, via ESPN.com. “They bring a lot. They help out. They tell us how to run the route. They’re really on it when you don’t run it a certain way. They’re big on details, kind of what we preach, and it helps a lot.”

Wilson and Fields could potentially compete for the starting job this spring and summer, and there is also the possibility that the Steelers deploy both quarterbacks throughout the upcoming season.

Regardless of how the snap distribution plays out or who emerges atop the depth chart, Warren is optimistic that Pittsburgh’s big makeover will pay big dividends. Perhaps, Pittsburgh isn’t done adding to the weapons around their veteran quarterbacks, either.
