Roman Wilson ‘Handled Himself Well’ During Benching, Aaron Rodgers Says, ‘Excited’ For His Opportunity

If the Steelers have a role for Roman Wilson on Sunday, Aaron Rodgers sounds ready to welcome him back. Having spent the past three games on the bench, the second-year receiver has an opportunity in front of him. With DK Metcalf suspended for the next two games and Calvin Austin III ailing, Pittsburgh is down two primary targets.

Rodgers has talked a lot about Wilson this year, but those conversations have had a lot to do with the mental aspect of the game. He spoke in a similar vein this week about the young receiver, particularly in relation to his recent demotion.
