The Pittsburgh Steelers have George Pickens as their unquestioned No. 1 receiver and then a number of potential contributors but no standout WR2 behind him. For Arthur Smith, it’s an opportunity to get more players involved in the offense. During an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on Wednesday, Smith talked about how it reminds him of his time running an offense with the Tennessee Titans.
“Van Jefferson’s a guy that’s had a terrific camp,” Smith said. “Calvin Austin [III], these guys, Scotty Miller, Dez Fitzpatrick, Quez Watkins, they’re all competing. And that’s where it feels a lot more like Tennessee where everyone’s getting involved.
