ESPN revealed on Friday that the former first-round draft pick had three more teams on his radar before he became a free agent in 2024, suggesting he had other plans. Among those clubs were, of course, the Steelers; Fields is expected to have an opportunity to contend for first-team reps following three years in Chicago, but coach Mike Tomlin believes Russell Wilson is in “pole position” to start for Pittsburgh. Otherwise, the quarterback’s top destinations were the Minnesota Vikings, Las Vegas Raiders, and Atlanta Falcons, according to ESPN. The former starter for the Vikings Kirk Cousins was eventually signed by Atlanta swiftly in free agency, while Minnesota added Sam Darnold and obtained a second first-round pick for the April draft, opening the door for a possible double-dip at the position.
