Wilson 50-50: There was no true QB competition in training camp but could there suddenly be one by Monday if Russell Wilson can’t go vs Atlanta and Justin Fields has an electric game? The Steelers were ultra cautious with Russell Wilson in camp because of significant fears a calf injury at his age could lead to an Achilles injury. Wilson arriving to Steelers headquarters Thursday with calf tightness is alarming on a number of levels for a player his age as this could be a week-to-week thing for a while now. Wilson is expected to be a true Game-Time Decision on Sunday as in a decision coming about 90 minutes before Game Time………….. -[-3.5] Falcons – Steelers opened at -2.5 ATL and has now moved to -3.5 Falcons. Could the line move even more with Wilson’s status up in the air? Still think the Steelers are being greatly overlooked in this one with Kirk Cousins coming off an Achilles tear…….. $$$$ Talks: Pittsburgh was never bending from the neighborhood of 4 years, $48 Million on a Pat Freiermuth extension so it was becoming decision time for Pat Freiermuth and as it often plays out, deadlines lead to deals as the two crossed the finish line today on a 4-year deal just north of $48 Million. Even with expectations of being the Steelers No. 2 receiving target, there was just too much risk for Freiermuth not to take this deal who receives $23 Million in guaranteed money……….Great Start + trade for Courtland Sutton?: To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
