It wasn’t so long ago—circa 2018—that the Pittsburgh Steelers were regarded as having one of the very best wide receiver rooms in the NFL. Especially at the end of the 2018 season, though by the start of the next, they had lost their greatest wide receiver in franchise history, and their new number one didn’t quite look the part.
Entering 2020, the team now has a room stocked with young pedigree, but low on accomplishment to date, outside of JuJu Smith-Schuster, who does at least have one Pro Bowl season under his belt, not to mention over 200 receptions, nearly 3000 yards, and 17 touchdown catches in three years.
