- Roman Wilson has recorded at least six targets in every game this season and currently sits as Pittsburgh's No. 2 wide receiver behind DK Metcalf.
- Over Pittsburgh's past two games against Cincinnati and Cleveland, Wilson totaled six catches for 134 yards and two touchdowns, scoring 15-plus PPR points in each outing.
- The Indianapolis Colts have allowed four different receivers to post 12.3-plus PPR points this season — the matchup the column highlights for both Metcalf and Wilson as Aaron Rodgers' primary targets.
- Wilson was rostered in just 57% of CBS Sports leagues as of Friday, recommended as an add across all formats while teammate Michael Pittman is sidelined by a foot injury.
- In DraftKings lineups, Wilson is slotted at a $3,700 salary against Indianapolis, with the column calling his price "fantastic given his upside."
Why it matters: At a $3,700 DraftKings salary against a Colts defense that has already permitted four receivers to top 12.3 PPR points this season, Wilson represents a low-cost plug-and-play starter for fantasy managers before his snap share grows further during Pittman's absence.
