Russell Wilson stars on debut for Pittsburgh Steelers to a 37-15 in win over New York Jets

Russell Wilson, who missed the first six games with a calf injury, passes for two touchdowns and rushes for one in his Pittsburgh debut as the Steelers rally for a 37-15 victory over the visiting New York Jets on Sunday night

Russell Wilson threw two touchdown passes and ran for another in his Pittsburgh debut to lead the Steelers to a 37-15 win over Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets on Sunday night.

Wilson, 35, who spent the first six weeks watching from the sidelines while recovering from a calf injury, validated head coach Mike Tomlin’s decision to turn to the nine-time Pro Bowler over Justin Fields, who was steady if not always spectacular in Wilson’s absence.

Wilson looked more than capable while overcoming a sluggish start to pass for 264 yards, including scores to George Pickens and Van Jefferson as Pittsburgh (5-2) won their second straight match in front of a packed Acrisure Stadium crowd.
