Russell Wilson Resumes practicing in full

Wilson (calf) returned to practice as a full participant Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Wilson had been managing a minor calf strain for nearly the last two weeks, which gave Justin Fields a chance to command Pittsburgh's first-team offense at training camp alone, but the veteran signal-caller is now back in the mix at practice. Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that Wilson and Fields are alternating reps to begin Tuesday's session, which can be considered confirmation of Adam Schefter of ESPN's recent report that the two remain in a competition for the Week 1 starting gig. Friday's preseason game against the Texans could serve as an opportunity for Wilson and/or Fields to pull ahead, if they do suit up for a series or two.
