Just in time for a must-win game against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 18, a lightning-quick wide receiver (not DK Metcalf) could return to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
After missing the Week 17 loss to the Cleveland Browns with a hamstring injury, wide receiver Calvin Austin III could be ready for Sunday’s game against the Ravens, with Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin telling reporters they are “optimistic” about his availability.
Austin, who was drafted by the Steelers in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, has caught 28 passes for 317 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games this season.

With injuries denting Austin’s breakout potential in Year 4, Austin needs to end Week 18 on a high note, especially with a free-agent decision looming.
