Justin Fields’ absence cements a favorable draft pick outcome for the Steelers, turning a conditional trade into a clear win.

The Pittsburgh Steelers received some bad news Thursday as it was confirmed that backup quarterback Justin Fields will miss the Steelers’ upcoming game against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday. Latest Justin Fields Injury Update Brooke Pryor of ESPN.
