Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Williams during pregame. Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens on Nov. 17, 2024. Kylee Surike | Special to PennLiveWilliams has just one catch in three games with the team, the game-winning touchdown that got the Steelers out of Washington with a win. Since that moment, however, Williams has not only zero receiving yards but has yet to receive even a target from quarterback Russell Wilson.
The Steelers like Williams and his ability to make big catches. However, the team has to give him a chance to make those catches on moonballs if they want to see any noticeable impact for trading their fifth-round pick for just half a season of Williams. For now, many Williams' snaps go to Van Jefferson and Ben Skowronek. Williams will have a ten-day mini-bye to dive into the playbook and learn it more in-depth. So far, the Steelers seem impressed by what Williams has done, but they need to gain more trust in him. It seems likely that will come against the Cincinnati Bengals., where our team of sports betting experts has reviewed the experience, payout speed, parlay options and quality of odds for multiple sportsbooks.
