Who Should I Start? Scotty Miller or Samori Toure

Monday, August 4, 8:51 AM

Through two weeks of training camp practices, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Scotty Miller has been the team's wide receiver to stand out the most behind D.K. Metcalf. According to SI's Noah Strackbein, he has outperformed both Roman Wilson and Robert Woods. Calvin Austin III (undisclosed) has missed the last two practices, and the gap between Miller and the rest of the supporting cast has been even more evident. The Steelers' offense as a whole has reportedly struggled throughout camp, with Strackbein reporting that the defense has had the decided edge in nine of the team's first 10 practices. Sunday's practice focused on goal-line work, where the offense scored only twice in their 12 opportunities. Outside of Metcalf, the Steelers' passing game can be avoided except in deep leagues.

The Green Bay Packers released wide receiver Samori Toure on roster cutdown day on Tuesday, according to a league source. Toure just could survive final cuts among a pretty talented group of young pass-catchers in Green Bay. The 26-year-old was drafted in the seventh round in 2022 out of Nebraska and only managed to haul in 13 of his 28 targets for 160 yards and one touchdown with minimal offensive snaps in 22 total games (two starts) over the last two years. He had eight receptions for 78 scoreless yards in 11 regular-season games in 2023. The six wideouts that the Packers ended up keeping on their 53-man roster are Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, Malik Heath and Bo Melton. If Toure doesn't get re-signed to the Packers' practice squad, he'll be looking for work elsewhere as a free agent.
