The Pittsburgh Steelers have made the decision to move on from quarterback Mitchell Trubisky, releasing him earlier this afternoon and bringing an end to his tenure with the team. 

Right now, the Steelers are moving forward with the tandem of Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph, but according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the team could have their eyes on sometime that head coach Mike Tomlin is said to be "a big fan" of. 

Schefter believes that acquiring Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields is a possibility, saying the following during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show: 

“We know that Pittsburgh is going to go out and get some type of quarterback. Whether that’s Ryan Tannehill, whether that’s Russell Wilson, whether that’s Justin Fields,” Schefter said. “Justin Fields, I know Mike Tomlin’s a big fan of Justin Fields. We’ll keep that in mind during the offseason and the coming weeks.”

That's certainly something to keep tabs on.
