Batko: Mike Williams Trade Looking ‘Relatively Pointless’ So Far
Mike Williams SteelersWhy did the Pittsburgh Steelers give up a fifth-round pick for WR Mike Williams? It’s a question that is growing more and more relevant with each passing week. We have come a long way from his 32-yard game-winning touchdown pass against the Washington Commanders, and he has not.
Not that it is his fault, by any means, as the simple reality is the Steelers aren’t targeting him. Even though he has averaged more than 20 snaps per game the past three weeks, Williams isn’t seeing any opportunities. One might think the Steelers acquired him to help down the stretch in the division, but—he’s not. So what was the point? Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette wonders.
