Pittsburgh Steelers fans have high hopes for second-year wide receiver Roman Wilson, but after watching how practices have unfolded early, perhaps it's best to put those hopes on hold. The good news is that Roman Wilson has been running with the starters when the Steelers are in three-receiver sets (11 personnel). The bad news is that Aaron Rodgers has hardly looked his direction.
In Pittsburgh's first four unpadded practices, Wilson has been uncomfortably quiet. Several media members in attendance have been quick to point this out.
Nick Farabaugh of PennLive outlined Wilson's role as the team's 'Z' receiver, but admitted that it's been a quiet start.
