The progress of James Washington has been one of the highlights of the preseason for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but it seems that not everyone is ready to anoint the rookie as a starter quite yet. Despite all the positive words written about him in recent weeks, it would appear that Ben Roethlisberger is still looking to see a lot more improvement from the young player before he is prepared to trust him.
While Washington was given few chances to work with the team’s star quarterback in the opening weeks of camp, even when Antonio Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster missed time due to injury, that arrangement has significantly changed this week.
