While Pittsburgh Steelers fans are understandably excited to witness what WR Mike Williams is capable of in the Pittsburgh offense, it appears Steelers QB Russell Wilson already knows what to expect—greatness.

Wilson, speaking during the team's media availability on Thursday, responded to a question about how Williams's impressive athletic qualities can help the team moving forward. "I think those are all truths," Wilson stated. "I think when you look out there and realize the guy is 6'5", can run the way he can, jump up and catch the ball, run past people, and he's physical even in the short game."

Wilson gave the most impressive compliment a quarterback could ever give a receiver: "He's just a guy who's been really special over the years."

It’s safe to say the Steelers' QB is more than excited to get Williams onto the field for his Pittsburgh debut, and fans of the Black and Gold may be in for an absolute masterclass once the Wilson-Williams combination takes off.
