Roman Wilson debut set for Week 6 vs Raiders
Steelers fans rejoice! After weeks of questions surrounding the health of rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson and his inevitable return, the dynamic playmaker will make his debut against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6.
It was reported the past couple of weeks that Wilson recorded six practices in full, but still was considered a healthy inactive come gametime for Week's 4 and 5, much to the chagrin of Steelers fans.
Reporters were obviously bewildered, and asked head coach Mike Tomlin and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith for an explanation.
Tomlin understood the rookie's desire to get on the field, but stated that "It's very difficult to get on a moving train". Additionally, Smith acknowledged Wilson's absence from training camp as a potential holdup to his debut.
What will Wilson's involvement look like in Sunday's contest? Will Wilson finally give Pittsburgh the additional playmaker they have been so desperately searching for? All eyes will be on rookie receiver as the Steelers take on the Raiders in Week 6, on October 13th, at 4:05 PM EST.
