00:00Let's move on to the Steelers' problems at quarterback.
00:07Yeah, Russell Wilson, we discussed this yesterday and we'll update it now with his calf injury.
00:12And just hearing Wilson talk today, because it was pretty good for over a month, but it's the same calf that he had injured early in training camp.
00:20And he's very iffy right now. They listen to this question, well this is concerning.
00:23Justin Fields took majority of the first team reps today, so they'll see what happens with the next 24.
00:28See if he can go through tomorrow's walkthrough, but that does concern me.
00:32Now, there's some good news, though, on their offensive line.
00:35Fitano, the rookie right tackle, the first-round pick, he's ready to roll coming back from the MCL sprain.
00:40Isaac Sayamalo, one of the starting guards, he's out with a pectoral strain, as I understand it.
00:45It's probably a two-to-three-week miss here.
00:47They're hopeful in the next two weeks he'll be able to return, but that does concern me.
00:51And Scott, you and I talked about this with the Steelers' offensive line.
00:55They struggle, and you know they play the starters in the preseason.
00:58They did not look good, and by the way, the Falcons are healthy.
01:01Kyle Pitts will play with that hamstring issue. It was very minor.
01:04Jalen Warren, a running back, will play for the Steelers. They're good there.
01:08But Roman Wilson, as I told you, he's got what I put out there as a high ankle sprain.
01:13That's not good.
01:14And you're going to see Van Jefferson, who's kind of revived his career here with the Steelers.
01:18I know talking to people there, they're really happy to have him, and he will start opposite George Pickens.
01:24Van Jefferson. I mean, what did they have?
01:27Like last year, they had these same kind of crappy receivers playing opposite Pickens,
01:34and it just doesn't work, and that's just all there is to it.
01:37And both of these quarterbacks are fair to Midland at best.
01:41I mean, Fields is exciting when he runs the ball like Lamar Jackson, but that's it.
01:46When he throws the ball, you're scared to death he's going to throw picks,
01:49because that's what he does. He throws picks.
01:53That's what he does.
