Based on the way a few things transpired on Sunday, time might very well be short for Pittsburgh Steelers tight end/fullback Will Johnson.
For starters, Johnson, who originally signed with the team in 2012 as an undrafted free agent, played a season-low one snap in Sunday’s win over the Oakland Raiders. In addition to that, it’s been clear for some time now that Roosevelt Nix is the team’s primary fullback and he certainly deserves to be based on the way he’s played. If that’s not enough, rookie tight end Jesse James dressed for the first time this season and not only did he appear to play well for the most part, he played a whopping 33 snaps in his debut as the teams No.
