Chris Boswell - Busy in victory Boswell converted all four of his field-goal attempts while making both of his extra-point tries during Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Boswell didn't have any particularly long attempts during Monday's primetime matchup, as his longest field-goal attempt came from 31 yards. However, he remained perfect once again and has converted all 11 of his field-goal attempts while making all eight of his extra-point tries over the three games heading into Pittsburgh's Week 9 bye. The 33-year-old is tied with Austin Seibert for the most made field goals to begin the season, and Boswell's 95.8 percent field-goal conversion rate leads the league among kickers with at least 15 attempts.

Pat Freiermuth - Held in check Monday Freiermuth secured both of his targets for 19 yards during Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Freiermuth tallied 51 receiving yards during his first week catching passes from Russell Wilson in Week 7, but he had less success in Week 8, being held under 20 receiving yards for just the second time this season. Freiermuth has had multiple receptions in each of the first eight games of the season, but he's been held to just two touchdowns and has failed to top 25 receiving yards in three of the last four matchups. The 26-year-old has secured 26 of 31 targets for 264 yards and two touchdowns over the first eight games of the season.

Van Jefferson - Racks up four catches in Week 8 Jefferson secured four of five targets for 62 yards during Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Jefferson has been inconsistent for most of the 2024 season, but he racked up a season-high 62 receiving yards during Monday's primetime win a week after reaching the end zone for the first time this year. The 2020 second-rounder has had more success with Russell Wilson than he had with Justin Fields, and Jefferson has seen ample playing time throughout the season, including playing 80 percent of the team's offensive snaps Monday. Over the first half of the season, Jefferson has secured 14 of 21 targets for 139 yards and a touchdown.

Calvin Austin III - Scores twice on MNF Austin caught three of four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown while scoring a second time off of a 73-yard punt return in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Austin had a standout performance on Monday Night Football when he scored both of Pittsburgh's touchdowns in the second half. The 2022 second-round pick returned a punt for a score late in the third quarter before burning his assignment on the possession for a game-clinching touchdown on a deep ball from Russell Wilson. Austin continues to see a handful of targets while returning kicks for the Steelers, but he would need to hit pay dirt consistently in order to warrant fantasy consideration in standard formats.

Jaylen Warren - Produces 63 yards off 11 touches Warren rushed nine times for 46 yards and caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Warren continues to be one of the more effective backups in the league with another solid showing off of double-digit touches. The 25-year-old's production has taken off in recent weeks alongside quarterback Russell Wilson's activation in Week 7. Najee Harris is still the bell cow of this offense, but Warren has shown that he can be effective in a limited role for those in deeper fantasy formats.

George Pickens - Leading receiver for PIT Pickens finished with four receptions on five targets for 74 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Pickens had a potential touchdown reception overturned by replay in the first half, but he still finished as the team's leading receiver while posting his fourth highest receiving total through eight games. The 23-year-old has shown good rapport with new starting quarterback Russell Wilson, with the duo combining for a 9-185-1 stat line in two starts. Pickens' stock is trending in the right direction as Pittsburgh enters its bye, with the team resuming play against Washington on Nov. 10.

Najee Harris - Stays hot on MNF Harris carried the ball 19 times for 114 yards while catching three of four targets for 17 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Harris shined in the national spotlight for the second consecutive week after churning out another 100-plus yard rushing performance against a New York squad. The addition of quarterback Russell Wilson has helped add the threat of the deep ball to Pittsburgh's offense, lightening opposing defensive boxes for the 6-foot-1, 242-pound Harris. The bruising back took full advantage of that against the Giants, and may continue to do so in the second half of the fantasy season. For now, the Steelers enter a bye week, so fantasy managers will have to find a substitute for Harris in Week 9, before reactivating the back for a Week 10 matchup against Washington.

Russell Wilson - Sharp from pocket Monday Wilson completed 20 of 28 pass attempts for 278 yards and a touchdown while rushing three times for seven yards with a lost fumble in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.

Impact Wilson had Pittsburgh's offense clicking out of halftime after several lengthy first half drives resulted in field goals. The 35-year-old is looking like a good fit in Pittsburgh's scheme through two starts with 542 passing yards and four combined touchdowns in two team victories. The 6-2 Steelers will now enter a bye week before resuming play against the Commanders on Nov. 10. Wilson should be considered a solid fantasy play in Week 10 as he continues to get acclimated to his new offense over the bye.
