Roman Wilson might be the best garbage-time player ever. He has two late touchdowns now, both in games that were already out of reach against Green Bay and Los Angeles. However, with the way his career started, that’s really the only way he’s been able to get his foot in the door at the NFL level.
Expectations were high for Wilson, drafted in the third round back in 2024. Unfortunately, a training camp injury forced him to miss almost all of his rookie season. And during that time, his teammate Calvin Austin III took a major step forward, racking up over 500 yards and leading all Steelers’ receivers in touchdowns.
