Steelers WR Sammie Coates Emulated Bengals WR A.J. Green This Week On Scout Team

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver Sammie Coates has a long way to go until he’s considered one of the league’s top players at his position but this week in practice he got to pretend like he’s one.

According to Pennlive.com, Coates emulated Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green on the Steelers scout team this week in practice. He even wore Green’s No. 18 on his practice jersey this week instead of his usual No. 14.

“I’ve been 18 all week,” Coates said, according to Jacob Klinger.
