Players like Chris Boswell and T.J. Watt were clear stars for the Pittsburgh Steelers in their 18-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons Sunday, but there were multiple players who had good performances. Rookie linebacker Payton Wilson was one of those players. Wilson flashed during the preseason, and he made the most of his snaps in Week 1.
Speaking to the media after the game, Watt was asked his opinion on Wilson’s first NFL game.
“The guy’s a gazelle,” Watt said via the team’s YouTube channel. “He runs so fast. He’s sideline to sideline. He absorbs so much information, always taking down so much notes.
