The Pittsburgh Steelers sure love themselves some wide receivers. Of that there can be no doubt. During the 2018 season, no team used more receivers more frequently than did they. Not only did they run with at least three wide receivers on the field the second-most in the NFL at north of 75 percent of the time, they also used four- and five-receivers sets more than anybody else.
Which is precisely why it’s a bit hard to accept that the team will only go into the regular season with five wide receivers on the 53-man roster, as it’s currently constructed.
