Steelers' Justin Fields: Out for remainder of Week 15
Justin Fields (abdomen) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Eagles, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.Fields was hurt on his only snap of the game -- a second-quarter eight-yard carry on which Reed Blankenship was penalized for unnecessary roughness. Fields' absence means that Pittsburgh will be unable to deploy the package that features Fields as a runner, which the team has been using a few times per game. Russell Wilson remains the Pittsburgh Steelers' No. 1 quarterback.

Steelers' Justin Fields: Gets one carry in Week 13
Justin Fields played two of the Pittsburgh Steelers' 69 offensive snaps and carried once for seven yards in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.For the third week in a row, the Steelers carved out a small package of plays for Fields, who presents a more dynamic rushing threat than starter Russell Wilson. Fields has now reeled off gains of seven, eight, nine and 30 yards on four of his six carries over the past three games, so expect the Steelers to continue sprinkling him into the game plan over the final five contests of the regular season.

Steelers' Justin Fields: Plays seven snaps in primetime
Justin Fields failed to complete his lone pass attempt while rushing three times for 26 yards during Thursday's 24-19 loss to the Browns.Fields was out with the offense for three snaps during last week's win over the Ravens, and his snap count increased slightly Thursday, with most of his action coming in the second half, when the snow made passing conditions difficult. He's been efficient during his limited action over the last two games, averaging 8.6 yards per carry on five rushing attempts, but he remains firmly in the No. 2 role behind Russell Wilson and is unlikely to have much of a fantasy impact as long as he continues to see minimal snaps.

Steelers' Justin Fields: Doesn't take snaps as backup
Justin Fields didn't get any snaps during Sunday's 37-15 win over the Jets.Russell Wilson took over as the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback for the Week 7 matchup, but reports earlier in the week suggested that Pittsburgh would have a package of plays available for Fields. However, coach Mike Tomlin decided to ride the hot hand with Wilson as the offense put up 31 unanswered points en route to a comfortable victory. Given the success that the team had in prime time, it seems unlikely that Wilson is in danger of handing back the starting job, but it's still possible that Fields sees some game action in specific situations, likely in the red zone where his greater mobility might give defenses an extra threat to consider.
