Steelers QB Justin Fields managed only 145 passing yards in Sunday's blowout win over Las Vegas. But he delivered for fantasy managers with 59 yards and 2 TDs on the ground.
Here's HC Mike Tomlin on Fields' performance:
"I thought he did a nice job, particularly making some things happen with his legs, managing the circumstances and taking care of the ball," Tomlin said. "Obviously, he took a few hits, but he's a tough guy. I'm glad he's okay and we'll keep moving."
Fields wasn’t helped by a couple of drops, but he really came through near the goal line. One TD came on a designed rollout/run; the other on a goal line scramble.
The former Bear has now hit 17 fantasy points in four straight outings. We’ll see if he earns another start next Sunday against the Jets – but we’d be surprised if Tomlin pivots to Russell Wilson for that one.
One thing to note going forward: Pittsburgh’s O-line remains ravaged by injuries. Against Vegas, second-string C Zach Frazier suffered what looked like a multi-week ankle injury.
The Steelers are already without key linemen Troy Fautanu and James Daniels for the remainder of the season.
