Mike Tomlin had a clear plan for Roman Wilson this preseason — ease him into the offense before testing him on special teams. Two games in, Wilson has already exceeded expectations as a weapon in the passing game.
But don’t ask Wilson what’s left to prove.
“I don’t have anything to prove,” Wilson told the media via the Steelers PR department. “One percent better every day. Don’t get comfortable, don’t get complacent.”
He caught both of his two targets in the first preseason game for 24 yards. That included an impressive 19-yard grab in traffic over the middle to open up the game.
