Russell Wilson Takes Charge in First-Team Reps, Igniting QB Competition Before Jets Matchup

Wednesday, October 16th, 2024

Russell Wilson participated in the main practice session on Wednesday, suggesting he might be ready to start against the New York Jets on Sunday night for the first time this season.

Dan Moore Jr., the left tackle, expressed his trust in Wilson, noting his active participation in recent practices.

During the portion of practice open to observers, Wilson took the lead in individual drills ahead of Justin Fields and Kyle Allen.

Coach Mike Tomlin did not reveal how snaps are divided among players, emphasizing that the team prefers to keep such information private.

Tomlin also refrained from committing to a decision on who will start the game against the Jets.

Moore pointed out that the offensive line's strategy will not change regardless of the starting quarterback, focusing on their own performance and supporting the running game.
