Justin Fields receives massive last-minute promotion

Justin Fields had been named the backup quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers while Russell Wilson was named as the starter.

However, Wilson suffered a calf injury recently and it put his status for today in jeopardy. Well, according to Ian Rapoport, it is highly likely that Fields ends up getting the start. This is a huge promotion for him, and an opportunity that could prove to be a career-changer.

Fields will have his work cut out for him. However, the Falcons are a team that was not great last season. With Kirk Cousins at QB, they will be a lot better and it may just be a shootout.

Do you believe Fields can beat the Atlanta Falcons today? Let us know in the poll down below and stay tuned to Let's Bear Down for the latest news and updates from around the football world.
