Pittsburgh Steelers rookie wide receiver calls veteran wideout Calvin Austin III a leader of the team.
PITTSBURGH -- Following the 2023 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver room went through a complete change. Losing Diontae Johnson, Miles Boykin and Allen Robinson, the Steelers needed to have an active offseason. Going into the offseason with just George Pickens and Calvin Austin III, the Steelers have also added players such as Scotty Miller, Denzel Mims and Van Jefferson.

Rookie Roman Wilson, a third round selection from Michigan, had only praise for three-year vet Calvin Austin III Austin has a chance to make a true impact for the first time in his NFL career. A foot injury kept the fifth round selection off the field his entire rookie season. In 2023 Austin spent much of the season buried on the depth chart but shone as a quick receiver. In just 17 catches, Austin caught for 180 yards and a touchdown.
