Ke'Shawn Williams Leads Pittsburgh In Receiving

Sunday, August 10, 1:40 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Ke'Shawn Williams secured both of his targets for 55 yards and a touchdown in a 31-25 preseason win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The undrafted rookie made a statement on Saturday night as a go-to downfield weapon for quarterback Skylar Thompson. He managed to come down with a heavily contested 26-yard deep ball in the endzone that gave the Steelers a two-possession lead in the fourth quarter. Williams is far from a guarantee to make the 53-man roster, but there aren't many proven options ahead of him in Pittsburgh's wide receiver corps. He'll look to further establish himself throughout the preseason, with his next opportunity coming against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Omar Cooper Jr. News

Omar Cooper Jr. Heading to Injured Reserve

Saturday, September 19, 8:38 AM

New York Jets rookie wide receiver Omar Cooper Jr. (ankle) is going to be put on Injured Reserve, sources told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The move will give Cooper four weeks to recover from the ankle sprain that he suffered in the Week 1 season-opening win over the Tennessee Titans. The earliest that Cooper will be able to return will be on Oct. 18 on the road against the division-rival New England Patriots. The 22-year-old 30th overall pick from Indiana is not a must-stash in 12- and 14-team leagues while he recovers. Before injuring his ankle last Sunday, Cooper caught his only target for a 30-yard gain. With Cooper sidelined for at least the next four games, top wideout Garrett Wilson will have a larger target share from quarterback Geno Smith, while Adonai Mitchell should also become a much more attractive sleeper as a WR4/flex, beginning in Week 2 against the visiting Green Bay Packers.
