Who Should I Start? Roman Wilson or Jordan Whittington

Penn Live's Nick Farabaugh reports that Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson is starting in three-wide sets with the first-team offense alongside DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III to start training camp practice this week. Wilson, a third-rounder (84th overall) last year out of Michigan, missed the majority of his first season in the NFL due to injury and was active for just one game. With George Pickens in Dallas, there's plenty of opportunity for Wilson to make a statement in what will essentially be his first year in the league. Behind Wilson and Austin, the Steelers have only veteran Robert Woods, Scotty Miller and Ben Skowronek -- not exactly the most threatening competition. Wilson will have opportunity, but as a speedy deep threat across from Metcalf, it might be hard for him to stand out on a weekly basis.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Jordan Whittingon, who is battling with Tutu Atwell for the team's No. 3 wideout role in training camp this summer, has caught the eye of offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur. "This dude's just flat out tough, mentally and physically," LaFleur said. The Rams took the 24-year-old in the sixth round out of Texas, and he finished with just 22 receptions on 28 targets for 293 yards and no touchdowns in 15 regular-season games (three starts). It's the second straight year that he's impressed in training camp, although he should have a much better shot at contributing in L.A.'s passing attack in 2025. Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will be the Rams' unquestioned top two wideouts, so for Whittington to surface on the fantasy radar, he will likely need Nacua or Adams to miss time with injury. He has the physicality to be intriguing out of the slot, but not a lot of targets will be expected.
