Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson is not expected to play against the Denver Broncos due to a calf injury that has kept him sidelined since training camp.
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin stated, 'We're preparing as if Justin is going to be our quarterback. I think that's an appropriate way to do it. Speculation is a waste of time. Russell's hurt. He's not available to us.'
Wilson, 35, has been limited in practice this week and was inactive during the previous game against the Falcons, where he served as the emergency third quarterback.
Justin Fields is poised to make his second start for the Steelers against Denver after a decent performance in a previous victory over the Falcons in Wilson's absence.
