Sammie Coates just getting comfortable in the Steelers offense, and that's a good thing

Although some might as what took so long, WR Sammie Coates feeling comfortable in the Steelers offense couldn't come at a better time.

It hasn't always been a breeze for Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Sammie Coates. After being drafted in the third round of the 2015 NFL Draft, some huge expectations were placed on his shoulders. With an already stacked wide receiver depth chart, production wasn't always a necessity, but most expected Coates to at least contribute in his rookie season.

Those expectations weren't met in the regular season, as Coates had only one catch for 11 yards, all while playing in just 6 games as a first-year player.
