The Steelers seem very impressed by WRs Adam Thielen and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, a pair of veterans who debuted last week. The latter had been on the practice squad for weeks, but they just claimed the former off waivers. Despite their limited experience with the team, they both stepped up against the Ravens — despite what the numbers might say.
“You can’t be fooled by the stat lines for either those two guys, because just their presence out there and them being the right spot every single time makes a big difference as far as spacing goes,” Aaron Rodgers said of Thielen and Valdes-Scantling, via the Steelers’ website.
