Steelers Film Room: Sammie Coates Vs Broncos

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver Sammie Coates was only active for a few games during his rookie season, and the only three games during the regular season in which he saw any playing time were in the three games after Tyler Murphy was sent down to the practice squad and prior to Martavis Bryant returning to the lineup.

In the span of those three games, Coates played under 40 snaps, and caught just one pass for 11 yards. And, of course, most of those snaps happened to come without Ben Roethlisberger, who was injured during the third quarter of that first game.
