The Pittsburgh Steelers exhausted all options looking for wide receiver help at the trade deadline and ended up with former first-round pick Mike Williams. He had a game-winning touchdown catch in his first game. Great start, right? The only problem is, that remains his only target with the Steelers to this day.
In three games, Williams has played 53 snaps on offense. That shows that the team is comfortable enough with his knowledge of the playbook, but he still hasn’t gotten any looks in the passing game.
George Pickens was asked after Friday’s practice if Williams is doing things to help other guys get open, or otherwise contributing in ways outside of his unimpressive stats in the box score.
