Slot man Eli Rogers ruled out for Steelers versus Kansas City
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Eli Rogers (turf toe) has been ruled out for Week 4 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
What It Means:
Wheaton should theoretically get more looks with more time in the slot, but he was benched last week after dropping three passes. Le'Veon Bell will likely prove to be the biggest beneficiary as the Steelers make an effort to utilize him in the slot.
Wheaton was previously projected to catch 2 passes for 27 yards and 0.18 touchdowns in Week 4 versus Kansas City.
