If you’re looking for an immediate impact from the Pittsburgh Steelers draft class of 2018, then you will be looking at second-round wide receiver James Washington, who figures to be the team’s number three target by the time the regular season begins—perhaps starting tonight.
After his preseason debut last week, Washington started getting a lot more time working with the first-team offense, including quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, but against the Eagles, he came in behind JuJu Smith-Schuster, Darrius Heyward-Bey, and Justin Hunter, actually coming in slightly after Damoun Patterson and Marcus Tucker did as Hunter got a few extra reps beyond the other ‘starters’.
