PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers are planning to stick with Justin Fields over an injured Russell Wilson as they get ready for a trip to Denver. Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday says his team is “preparing as if Justin is going to be our quarterback” with Wilson’s status uncertain. The nine-time Pro Bowler is dealing with a balky calf that kept him out of a season-opening win in Atlanta last Sunday. Fields was steady if not spectacular against the Falcons, completing 17 of 23 passes for 156 yards and running for 57 more while not turning the ball over as Pittsburgh relied heavily on its defense and kicker Chris Boswell.
