Calvin Austin III On New Steelers WR Mike Williams’ Versatility: ‘Could See Him Inside’

Will we see much of new Pittsburgh Steelers WR Mike Williams on Sunday versus the Washington Commanders? Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette doesn’t think so, predicting only 10-15 snaps at most. And that makes sense as Williams needs to learn a new offense and get comfortable with QB Russell Wilson. But what will be interesting is seeing just how offensive coordinator Arthur Smith uses him going forward.

Williams is a big-play threat with a career average of 15.5 yards per catch. So most people would expect that he’ll line up as an outside receiver opposite George Pickens.
