Roman Wilson Out "A Couple Of Weeks" With Finger Injury
Roman Wilson Out "A Couple Of Weeks" With Finger Injury
Steelers WR Roman Wilson is expected to miss "a couple of weeks" with the finger injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Colts, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. Wilson is still getting a second opinion on the injury. We'll let you know if his timeline changes, but Wilson is not a must-hold on redraft rosters. With WR Michael Pittman on IR and WR Ben Skowronek suffering a calf injury yesterday, the Steelers were down to Brandon Smith as their No. 3 WR. We should see targets condense around WRs D.K. Metcalf and Germie Bernard, TEs Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington, and RB Jaylen Warren in the short term.
Pat Freiermuth Doubles His TD Total in One Afternoon
Pat Freiermuth Doubles His TD Total in One Afternoon
Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth caught 5 of 7 targets for 44 yards and 2 TDs in Sunday’s 34-22 win over the Colts. His longest catch went for 17 yards, and he added 1 yard on a carry. That totaled 21.5 PPR points. His 7 targets ranked second on the team behind Germie Bernard. Darnell Washington caught 2 of 3 targets for 12 yards.
Michael Pittman Out Multiple Weeks After Aggravating Foot Injury
Michael Pittman Out Multiple Weeks After Aggravating Foot Injury
Steelers WR Michael Pittman is expected to miss multiple weeks after aggravating his foot injury, HC Mike McCarthy said Thursday. Pittman has totaled just 7 catches for 89 yards across his three games this season and can be dropped from redraft rosters. His absence should mean a boost in playing time for rookie WR Germie Bernard, who registered an 86% route rate and 8 targets when Pittman missed Week 2. Bernard is a fine stash in deeper leagues, but we wouldn't trust him in Week 5 fantasy lineups. WRs D.K. Metcalf and Roman Wilson and TEs Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington could also see more targets with Pittman out.
Update: Pittman has been placed on IR, knocking him out at least through Pittsburgh's Week 9 bye.
The Entire Steelers Offense Might be Useless
The Entire Steelers Offense Might be Useless
The Steelers mustered only three points against the New England Patriots in Week 2. QB Aaron Rodgers only completed 59% of his passes for 187 yards. The two starting RBs (Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle) combined to rush 18 times for 65 yards, 3.61 yards per carry. WR D.K. Metcalf had his second straight week with a dropped pass. It’s possible the offense just won’t carry much fantasy value going forward.
Michael Pittman Jr.'s Absence Bound to Challenge Steelers Passing
Michael Pittman Jr.'s Absence Bound to Challenge Steelers Passing
The Steelers on Saturday downgraded WR Michael Pittman Jr. to out because of his foot injury. That leaves Pittsburgh without the guy who ran the second-most routes on the team in Week 1 and led squad with 58 receiving yards.
