With a handful of new faces featured on offense this season for the Pittsburgh Steelers, there’s a lot of hype and anticipation for names like Aaron Rodgers, DK Metcalf and Jonnu Smith under offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.

Don’t overlook fourth-year receiver Calvin Austin III, though.

A familiar face in Pittsburgh, Austin enters training camp as the WR2 on the roster behind Metcalf. He finds himself in line for a breakout season, too, as a guy who should see more opportunities in the passing game with Rodgers under center.

Longtime Steelers beat writer Mark Kaboly believes Austin is in line for a major breakout season.
