The fourth-team quarterback doesn’t get a ton of reps during training camp practices. There are only so many reps to go around. Undrafted rookie QB John Rhys Plumlee got extra work over the first week and a half of training camp due to Russell Wilson sitting out of practice with a calf injury, but since Wilson returned there have been less opportunities for him to get reps at practice.

That isn’t stopping the Pittsburgh Steelers from experimenting with him in other roles. At today’s practice Plumlee worked at wide receiver, per Alex Kozora on X.
