Hey, can we talk about Justin Fields today? And when I say that, I mean, let's really get it all out of our systems here because I'm starting to get some feedback on this subject that I'm not particularly crazy about,

0:22.7

and I'd rather just get what I feel out in the open.

0:26.7

Good morning to you. Good.

0:28.6

Wednesday morning, I'm Dan Kovachievich of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

0:31.4
