Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers addressed the progress of team wide receivers Roman Wilson and Germie Bernard during Wednesday’s practice session. Rodgers noted that Wilson made a repeat mistake during the session but expressed confidence in his development following a productive training camp. The quarterback contrasted this with the performance of rookie Germie Bernard, praising the newcomer for his attention to detail and ability to avoid repeating errors. These observations come as the Steelers seek to expand their passing attack under new head coach Mike McCarthy. The team invested significantly in the wide receiver position this offseason, including the acquisition of Michal Pittman Jr. The development of young receivers remains a focal point as the franchise adjusts to a more pass-heavy offensive strategy for the upcoming season.
