Russell Wilson remains first on Pittsburgh's quarterback depth chart, but the Steelers are playing it safe with the veteran as he recovers from an aggravated calf injury. Hence the team is "preparing as if" Fields will get a second straight start against the Denver Broncos, Wilson's former club.

Stephen A. Smith explains why he isn't ready to name Justin Fields the starter if Russell Wilson is healthy.
