Russell Wilson injury update: Latest on Pittsburgh Steelers QB ahead of opener vs. Falcons
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson’s status to play in the Steelers’ opener against Atlanta on Sunday is still up in the air, though the quarterback feels he could play, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Wilson has been dealing with a calf injury.
Late on Saturday, Schefter reported that Wilson informed the team he was capable of playing in the opener. However, the Steelers are seeking to be more cautious with the decision.
A final call on Wilson’s status — he’s been listed as questionable entering the weekend — will be decided closer to kick off on Sunday.
If Wilson cannot play, Justin Fields is the presumed starter.
