Steelers Stock Watch – ILB Payton Wilson

Player: ILB Payton Wilson

Stock Value: Up

Reasoning: After struggling at the start of the season, Payton Wilson is starting to settle back down in a reduced role. Over the past two games, the Steelers have begun utilizing Cole Holcomb, taking some responsibilities off Wilson’s shoulders. As he settles down, however, the question is how much of that weight he begins to carry again.

A week after playing 35 snaps, under 50 percent of the Steelers’ defensive total, Payton Wilson climbed back up to 66, or about 87 percent.
