Bleacher Report Names WR Roman Wilson A Rookie Breakout Candidate

List season is coming to an end, with training camp just a few days away. But why not add one more to the pile as Bleacher Report’s Matt Holder offered up each NFL team’s biggest breakout candidate. In a bit of a surprise, he named rookie WR Roman Wilson for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

“Wilson is the first rookie breakout candidate as he has an excellent opportunity to immediately become the Steelers’ No. 2 receiver behind George Pickens,” Holder wrote. “The Michigan product’s biggest competition for that role will be Van Jefferson, who is playing for his third team in two years, so the third-round pick should see plenty of targets this fall.
