After losing his starting job as the kick and punt returner in Pittsburgh last season, and largely falling down the depth chart at receiver as well, it seemed like a foregone conclusion that Steelers wide receiver Gunner Olszewski was not going to factor into the picture in 2023 for the Steelers.

Since then, Olszewski has put together some really strong days for the Black and Gold, earning praise from quarterbacks Kenny Pickett and Mitch Trubisky in recent days.
“He’s a great route runner”, Trubisky told Tim Benz on the Breakfast with Benz podcast.
