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.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson suffered a hand injury at the end of the first half of Sunday's game vs. the Colts and has been ruled out. He finished catch-less on one target.

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 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.

Steelers WR Michael Pittman is dealing with a "minor" hamstring injury, according to Penn Live's Nick Farabaugh. Pittman has been out for a week and a half but expects to be ready for Week 1, per Farabaugh.

The Steelers have placed WR Roman Wilson on IR for his hamstring injury. The rookie sustained the injury in the practice week leading up to the Week 7 win over the Jets. Wilson missed that game and has played just 5 snaps all year. He previously dealt with an ankle injury suffered before the season.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson is inactive for today's game vs. the Chargers. The rookie has been working back from a significant ankle injury but was left off this week's final injury report. Wilson is not worth rostering in any redraft leagues right now.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 3 injury report. He’s ready to make his debut against the Chargers on Sunday. We’ll see how big a role the rookie plays, but he’s well off the fantasy radar right now.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson is considered "week-to-week" with the ankle injury he suffered in Tuesday's practice, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. "He could miss some time, but the injury does not appear serious," Fowler adds. It's relatively good news after Wilson had to be carted back to the locker room.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson left Tuesday's practice on a cart. Per The Athletic's Mike DeFabo, Wilson was injured on a jet sweep. KDKA TV's Bob Pompeani believes it's an ankle injury. We'll update the rookie's status when we know more.

Update: HC Mike Tomlin confirmed after practice that Wilson injured an ankle and is under evaluation to determine the severity.
