Ready for the next one: Looking at receiver Roman Wilson’s stat sheet from Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks, it’s not a number that might immediately jump out.<\/p>\n
But it was a number that had meaning for Wilson.<\/p>\n
Wilson’s one catch against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, which was a seven-yard reception from quarterback Aaron Rodgers, was his first career reception.<\/p>\n
“It was cool,” said Wilson. “Just trying to keep working on what I can do to help the team. But it was cool.”<\/p>\n
Wilson was injured for the majority of his rookie season in 2024, so finally pulling in that reception was something he waited some time for.<\/p>\n
But he isn’t thinking too much about it.<\/p>\n
“I’m really focused on going into next week and things like that,” said Wilson. “Like I said, it is cool, but it’s just football to me. I’ve had plenty of catches before, so I’m just really looking forward to the next one.”<\/p>\n
Wilson spent the vast majority of the 2024 season on the sidelines, appearing in just one game, but he didn’t let that deter him from learning.<\/p>\n
“It’s been cool just working in with my reps,” said Wilson. “Just working with what I get. It’s been good, feeling better. So, it’s been fun.”<\/p>\n
Wilson is hoping for more, but he will be happy with whoever the ball is thrown to in the receiving corps, a group he really likes.<\/p>\n
“We’ve got a great room, me, DK (Metcalf), Calvin (Austin), Scotty (Miller) and Ben (Skowronek),” said Wilson. “Just a lot of great talent in there. Just keep working on it.”<\/p>\n
And with Rodgers at quarterback, he knows they can explode at any moment.<\/p>\n
“It’s really nice to hear him talking on the sideline, hear him talk in the huddle,” said Wilson. “Hearing him talk about football. It’s been a really cool experience to be around.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ready for the next one: Looking at receiver Roman Wilson’s stat sheet from Sunday’s game against the Seattle…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":370744,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2055],"tags":[37329,198,7,6,914,520,57,65514,2360,915,426],"class_list":{"0":"post-370743","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-pittsburgh-steelers","8":"tag-blog-regular-season","9":"tag-featured","10":"tag-football","11":"tag-nfl","12":"tag-non-sponsored","13":"tag-pittsburgh","14":"tag-pittsburgh-steelers","15":"tag-pittsburgh-steelers-at-new-england-patriots-2025-reg-3","16":"tag-pittsburghsteelers","17":"tag-sights-and-sounds","18":"tag-steelers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115209984350691867","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370743","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=370743"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370743\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/370744"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370743"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370743"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370743"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
