Fittipaldo Doesn’t Expect Steelers To Play Mike Williams Much Sunday, Preston Smith Could See 10-20 Snaps

The Pittsburgh Steelers traded for both WR Mike Williams and EDGE Preston Smith ahead of Tuesday’s NFL Trade Deadline, and while wide receiver has been more of a need for the Steelers, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette believes that Smith could out-snap Williams on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Appearing on The PM Team on 93.7 The Fan, Fittipaldo said he thinks Nick Herbig, who’s been out with a hamstring injury, will be inactive for the Steelers, leading Smith to be a key backup at outside linebacker. Meanwhile, he thinks the Steelers will be slow to work in Williams.
