The Pittsburgh Steelers are gearing up for their second preseason game this Saturday against the Buffalo Bills.
Last week, the Steelers faced off against the Houston Texans, coming up short with a 20-12 loss. Justin Fields started the game, putting up 67 yards with a 5-of-6 completion rate, while Russell Wilson sat out due to a calf injury.
Following a joint practice with the Bills at Acrisure Stadium, head coach Mike Tomlin announced that Wilson will be taking the field this weekend.

Steelers fans are eager to see Wilson in action for the first time. Traditionally, the second preseason game is known as the “dress rehearsal game” where starters play a significant portion of the first half. With both Wilson and Fields vying for the starting position, it will be interesting to see how playing time is distributed.
