Wilson entered the league with promise as a 2024 third-round pick, bringing 4.39 speed to a Steelers receiving corps in need of a vertical threat, but he failed to draw a target as a rookie and followed up with just a 12-166-2 line across 13 games in 2025. Now entering Year 3, Wilson faces an uphill battle for relevance after Pittsburgh added Michael Pittman to pair with DK Metcalf and selected Germie Bernard in the second round of the 2026 Draft. If Wilson can secure the No. 4 WR role, his contributions will likely be limited to a rotational, situational deep threat.
