Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. recorded two receptions for 16 yards on five targets in Week 3 against the Cincinnati Bengals. He returned after missing Week 2 due to a foot injury, but struggled to make an impact despite quarterback Aaron Rodgers nearing 300 passing yards. Roman Wilson led all receivers with 60 yards and a touchdown, while DK Metcalf also scored. Pittman is expected to be treated as a WR5 heading into the upcoming game against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday.
