Russell Wilson's new team got a win over his old team on Sunday as the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Denver Broncos, and he was awarded with a "petty game ball" afterward.

Per ESPN's Brooke Pryor, quarterback Justin Fields said head coach Mike Tomlin gave Wilson a "petty game ball," which Tomlin gives to players after they beat their former team.

Fields also gave his candid thoughts about Wilson's time with Denver in 2022 and 2023.

"I think all know Russ kinda got done dirty last year," Fields said, per the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Jason Mackey. "I know he wishes he could have played today's game, but it was awesome getting this win for him."

While Wilson didn't play against his former team on Sunday as he continues to work his way back from a calf injury suffered in training camp, it likely feels good to get a win over the Broncos after a tumultuous exit.

Wilson never found his rhythm with the Denver, recording 3,524 passing yards, 16 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in 2022 before posting 3,070 passing yards, 26 touchdowns and eight interceptions a year ago.

He was benched for the final two games of the season last year, indicating that his time with the Broncos was over.

Now with the Steelers, Wilson is looking to prove that he's still the MVP-caliber quarterback he has been throughout his career. For now, he'll watch from the sideline to make sure he's 100 percent.

But even when he's healthy, it's not a given that Wilson immediately take over as the Steelers' starter.

Fields has made a strong case over the first two games of the season as he led Pittsburgh to wins over the Atlanta Falcons and Broncos. He had 156 passing yards and 57 rushing yards in Week 1 before collecting 117 passing yards, a touchdown and 27 rushing yards on Sunday.
