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.

Denver Broncos rookie third-round wide receiver Pat Bryant consistently showed physicality to win contested catches during the team's offseason program, according to ESPN's Jeff Legwold. Additionally, quarterback Bo Nix showed the confidence to target Bryant in tight situations. Consistent playing time could be hard to come by with Courtland Sutton, Marvin Mims Jr. and Troy Franklin getting most of the work with the starters, but Legwold thinks Bryant will be in the mix if he builds on his offseason work in training camp and the preseason. The 22-year-old from Illinois isn't a burner by any means, but the Broncos saw a precise route-runner who consistently created space with an explosive release off the line of scrimmage. Bryant has been compared to former Saints wideout Michael Thomas, who had quite a run in Sean Payton's offense in New Orleans. For now, Bryant is one to watch with training camp approaching.
