? Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt praised quarterback Russell Wilson’s leadership skills during an interview with Kay Adams on Up & Adams.
“When you see (Russ) come in the building you don’t know if what you’ve seen online is real… but he’s been so consistent … hasn’t gotten too high or too low, that’s what you wanna see,” Watt said of Wilson.
Wilson received a lot of flak in Denver for reportedly not being a good teammate. Nothing of such has been showcased in Pittsburgh.

? Steelers quarterback Justin Fields explained the process of deciding when to run.
“Coach T and Arthur (Smith) never want to take away my instincts as far as running goes. We have a dual-threat quarterback in our division that’s very good at running, too, so it’s always good to give the defense that work,” Fields said.
