The Steelers have two quarterbacks competing for the starting job this afternoon, including Russell Wilson and Justin Fields. Notably, both of these quarterbacks were acquired during the offseason, so they are still adjusting to the new environment.

Wilson and Fields struggled in their last preseason game, only scoring a total of three points against the Buffalo Bills. Wilson led the offense for five drives and punted four times, while Fields led the offense for eight drives and punted the same amount.

Pittsburgh’s head coach Mike Tomlin has favored Wilson throughout the preseason, so Fields will have to play much better this afternoon to earn the starting spot.

The Lions have dealt with multiple injuries at practice this week, so their lineup will look different in this preseason matchup. Notably, the team’s running back Craig Reynolds suffered a leg injury on Tuesday. He is currently fighting for the third-string spot on the roster, but the injury will likely force him to miss today’s game. Due to his absence, rookie running back Sione Vaki will take most of the snaps today.
