The Steelers placed Wilson (hamstring) on injured reserve Monday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. The third-round rookie's 2024 has been marred by injuries, and he'll now miss at least the next four games. Wilson will first be eligible to return Week 13 against the Bengals. After missing a bunch of time over the summer and the first few weeks of the regular season with an ankle injury, Wilson made his NFL debut Week 6 and is injured again. The Steelers will continue to roll with George Pickens, Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin as their top three wideouts.

The Steelers placed Wilson (hamstring) on injured reserve Monday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. The third-round rookie's 2024 has been marred by injuries, and he'll now miss at least the next four games. Wilson will first be eligible to return Week 13 against the Bengals. After missing a bunch of time over the summer and the first few weeks of the regular season with an ankle injury, Wilson made his NFL debut Week 6 and is injured again. The Steelers will continue to roll with George Pickens, Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin as their top three wideouts.
Wilson (hamstring) is ruled out for Monday's game against the Giants, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports. Wilson couldn't practice in any capacity leading up to Week 8 action, and he'll now miss yet another game to kick off what's been an injury-plagued rookie campaign. His only appearance so far this season came Week 6 versus the Raiders, when he played five offensive snaps but wasn't targeted.
Wilson (hamstring) didn't practice Friday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. Wilson has now logged back-to-back DNPs to begin Pittsburgh's week of practice, suggesting he's a longshot to play in Monday night's matchup against the Giants. The rookie will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation in Saturday's practice to have a chance at suiting up in Week 8. If Wilson can't move past his hamstring issue, expect Scotty Miller to see increased work with the Steelers' offense.
Wilson (hamstring) was listed as a DNP on the Steelers' injury report Thursday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Wilson missed the first two games of the regular season due to an ankle injury and was a healthy scratch for the following three contests. He made his NFL debut in Week 6 against the Raiders, but he came out of that contest with a hamstring injury which forced him to sit out of the Steelers' Week 7 win over the Jets. Wilson will have two more chances to return to practice ahead of the Steelers' Week 8 matchup against the Giants on Monday.
Wilson (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Jets. The wide receiver was a limited participant in both the Thursday and Friday practice sessions. Wilson made his regular-season debut in Week 6, played on five offensive snaps and did not see a target.
Wilson (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, isn't expected to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Wilson was inactive for the Steelers' first five games of the season before making his NFL debut in last Sunday's win over the Raiders. He played just five snaps in the victory and may have sustained a hamstring injury at some point during Week 7 prep. He didn't appear on the Steelers' initial injury report released Wednesday, then was listed as a limited participant in practices Thursday and Friday due to the hamstring issue. Official word on Wilson's Week 7 status will arrive when Pittsburgh posts its inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.
Wilson (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Wilson made his NFL debut in the Steelers' Week 6 win over the Raiders, playing just five of the team's 67 offensive snaps and failing to record a stat. The Michigan product then popped up on Pittsburgh's injury report as a limited participant in practice both Thursday and Friday due to a hamstring issue, putting his Week 7 availability in jeopardy. If Wilson can't play through his hamstring injury Sunday night, expect Scotty Miller to see increased snaps in the Steelers' wide-receiver corps.
Wilson failed to record a single target in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders. Wilson made his season debut in Week 6 after recovering from an ankle injury that caused him to miss the majority of training camp and the beginning of the 2024 campaign. The Steelers' coaching staff decided to ease him into action, as the rookie wideout played just five of Pittsburgh's 67 offensive snaps in the contest. As Wilson acclimates to the offense, his playing time and opportunities should increase. It appears he may do so with Russell Wilson under center instead of Justin Fields, as it seems the Steelers could make a quarterback change in Week 7 against the Jets.
Wilson is active Sunday against the Raiders, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. Wilson, who missed the majority of training camp and the early part of this season with an ankle injury, has been working his way back into the mix in practice over the last few weeks. Now that he's set to make his regular-season debut, the 2024 third-rounder will look to carve out a steady role in a Pittsburgh WR corps that's been seeking quality depth behind top option George Pickens, per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.
