Justin Fields is unexpected challenge for Steelers’ defense

LATROBE, Pa., — In one fluid motion, Justin Fields faked the handoff to Jaylen Warren, ripped the ball away and sprinted to his right, cutting toward the goal line as the defense scrambled to recover and cut off his path.

Fields, though, was too quick.

He flashed a peace sign at the defenders as he crossed the goal line to score the final, deciding touchdown of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ signature “Seven Shots” period on the first day of padded training camp practice at St.

Vincent College on Tuesday to give the offense a 4-3 win in one of coach Mike Tomlin’s favorite drills.

It’s super fun being able to show my legs off a little bit and practice was definitely fun,” Fields said.

“[The defense] talks a lot, but we did a good job today shutting ’em up and like coach always says, there’s no speculating now that we’ve got the pads on.”

With a calf injury limiting Russell Wilson’s participation through the first week of camp, not only does Fields have an opportunity to work with the first team offense and strengthen his case for the starting job, but the Steelers’ first team defense is gaining valuable experience defending a mobile quarterback — something that’s especially beneficial with games against a bevy of running quarterbacks on this year’s schedule.
