Pittsburgh Steelers 2024 third-round WR Roman Wilson played five snaps as a rookie. The fact that he suffered repeated injuries didn’t help matters, but he finished the season healthy. His lack of playing time complicates the Steelers’ assessment of their current wide receiver room and is a recurring topic. Bearing that in mind, HC Mike Tomlin addressed why Wilson didn’t play at the end of last season.
“He was healthy, but healthy and football readiness are two different things”, the Steelers head coach said Monday of Roman Wilson during the league owners meetings, via the team’s YouTube channel.
