The Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense in 2022 felt like it was missing something. The team looked decent scoring the ball, especially in the back half of the season when rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett took over. However, there was a noticeable lack of big-play capability in the offense. Enter wide receiver Calvin Austin III.

Austin was selected in the fourth round in the draft by the Steelers last year and looked to provide an immediate spark to the offense and special teams. He was one of the fastest players in the draft last season, running a 4.32 40-yard dash at the Combine.
