Behind the Steel Curtain
The Pittsburgh Steelers made several personnel changes to their offense ahead of their Week 14 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Adam Thielen, whom the Steelers signed less than a week before the game, was made active, as was fellow veteran wideout Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
In response to those moves, Roman Wilson was made a healthy inactive. This came as a surprise to many, as Wilson has been showing the ability to create separation and has received more reps as the season has progressed.
Mike Tomlin was asked about the decision to sit Wilson while keeping Scotty Miller active, to which he said that Miller’s capabilities as a punt returner weighed into the decision.
Thielen had one catch for four yards, while Valdes-Scantling didn’t catch a pass. However, the offense had its best day passing the ball of the season, with Aaron Rodgers totaling 284 yards through the air.
