🏈 Steelers.com shared a photo of Justin Fields in a Steelers long-sleeve jacket. It’s the first time that Fields has been shown in the Black and Gold since signing.

🏈 Former Steelers cornerback and current team scout Ike Taylor described his relationship with Alabama cornerbacks Terrion Arnold and Kool-Aid McKinstry.

🏈 Ian Furness of KJR Radio and Fox-13 in Seattle said there’s a lot to Russell Wilson in an interview with Tim Benz of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

“I just want to welcome you to the Russell Wilson experience,” Furness said.

“There’s a lot to Russ,” he added, claiming that after a harmonious start to Wilson’s career in Seattle, things started to erode over time — largely after he was more frequently in the spotlight after his marriage to pop star Ciara.

“A lot of things started to change when that happened,” Furness continued. “He kind of became a ‘Look at me guy.’ We used to joke out here, it used to be their saying was, ‘Why not us?’ Then it became ‘Look at me,’ for Russ. He just changed, and he became a problem inside the facility, with the front office and with the staff. It just snowballed from there before they traded him.”

🏈 Mark Kaboly of The Athletic said on 93.7 The Fan that the Steelers aren’t better off at quarterback than they were last year. “Now, if Mason Rudolph would’ve stayed on, that would’ve been best.”

🏈 Brad Spielberger of Pro Football Focus said on 93.7 The Fan that the Steelers “may have a bottom-5” wide receiver room in the NFL, as it stands right now.

🏈 Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt is doing a meet and greet at Dick’s Sporting Goods in Ross Park Mall on Saturday from 12-1:30 p.m.

🎥 Justin Fields continues to put work in this offseason.
