Ex-Steelers Star Regrets Jets Move After Four Straight Losses

New York Jets to sign QB Justin Fields, according to reports

New York, NY – October 1, 2025

Leaving Pittsburgh was supposed to be the next step forward. But in just one month with the Jets, disappointment has already taken over as the team stumbles through four straight losses to open the year.

For a franchise desperate for stability, the arrival of a high-profile quarterback was expected to bring hope. Instead, New York’s offense remains inconsistent, and frustrations are already spilling out both inside and outside the locker room.

Justin Fields, signed this offseason to a two-year, $40 million contract with $30 million guaranteed, admitted his frustration after Sunday’s defeat. The former Steelers starter confessed that life in New York has been far from what he imagined.

“I regret leaving Pittsburgh for New York. Four straight losses with the Jets make it hard to believe in any future here. In Pittsburgh, there was always fight, and the fans never stopped believing,” Fields said.

The quarterback has shown flashes of brilliance. In two full games, he completed 65 percent of his passes for 471 yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 226 yards and four more scores, proving his dual-threat ability.

Yet inconsistency remains the story. Fields led the NFL in EPA per dropback in Week 1, only to rank dead last in Week 2. A concussion sidelined him in Week 3, stalling any momentum he briefly built.

Despite averaging nearly 19 fantasy points per game when fully healthy, his production has not translated to wins. New York’s offensive identity looks fractured, and the losing skid has magnified every mistake.

For Steelers fans, Fields’ regret resonates. He left behind a culture of toughness and loyalty in Pittsburgh, only to find frustration in New York. Now the question lingers — how long will this Jets chapter last?

Steelers Linked To Saints SuperStar With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade
Pittsburgh, PA — According to a  circulating on X (Twitter), the Pittsburgh Steelers have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Steelers look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set that meshes with Pittsburgh’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Pittsburgh intriguing two-back looks alongside Najee Harris on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Black and Gold really excites me.” As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Steelers or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Pittsburgh whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Steelers Nation perk up.
