Steelers' Justin Fields acknowledges on-field performance hasn't solidified him spot as QB1

Emmanuel Acho, LeSean McCoy, James Jones and Chase Daniel discuss whether it would be fair for the Pittsburgh Steelers to bench Justin Fields and start Russell Wilson despite a 4-2 start.

When it comes to rumors about which quarterback the Pittsburgh Steelers will start in Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, Justin Fields said the onus was on him to put doubts about him to rest.

And he acknowledged Thursday he hasn't done that. Russell Wilson took first-team reps at practice this week, and it has forced head coach Mike Tomlin to make a decision at QB1.

Does he ride with Fields, who has led the team to a 4-2 start behind one of the best defenses in the league? Or does he start Wilson, who was brought in to be the starting quarterback in the first place?
