Wilson said Wednesday that he and other key players will play in Saturday's preseason game at Detroit, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.
The Steelers apparently will deploy their first-string offense for a third time in as many preseason games, although in Wilson's case, it'll be just his second appearance because he dealt with a calf injury in late July and early August. While Wilson is still considered the favorite to get the Week 1 start, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette suggests that the 35-year-old could split first-team reps with Justin Fields in this weekend's exhibition finale.
