INJURIES

Pat Freiermuth - Racks up 58 yards Freiermuth hauled in all seven of his targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over Seattle.
Impact Freiermuth had been limited to just three receptions for 18 yards across the last two weeks, but he set the highest marks of his career in receptions and yards during Sunday's primetime matchup. He outpaced Eric Ebron in offensive snaps for the fifth time in the first six weeks of the season and has hauled in 18 of 20 targets for 158 yards and a touchdown this year.

Eric Ebron - Finds end zone in win Ebron hauled in both of his targets for 10 yards while rushing once for one yard and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Seahawks.
Impact Ebron continued to have a relatively low target share in Sunday's Week 6 matchup, but he reached the end zone for the first time this season on a one-yard rush late in the first half. The 28-year-old hasn't been targeted more than twice in any of his first six appearances of the season, and he had less work than rookie Pat Freiermuth against Seattle.
OCTOBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Kalen Ballage - Limited playing time in OT win Ballage recorded two carries for 15 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Seahawks.
Impact Although rookie Najee Harris played 84 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps Sunday, Ballage was on the field for 16 percent of the snaps and was the only other running back to play on offense. The 2018 fourth-rounder was efficient with his two touches, but he's still had fairly minimal work to begin the season.

Ben Roethlisberger - Leads team to victory Roethlisberger (pectoral/hip) completed 29 of 40 pass attempts for 229 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over Seattle.
Impact Roethlisberger has been battling injuries and declining production this entire season, but he managed to limit his mistakes and look like his old self at times in this contest, standing tall in the pocket on multiple occasions and keeping drives moving. The 39-year-old may never return to the vertical throwing style that made him a fantasy stalwart for many seasons, but perhaps the extra rest of the upcoming bye week may help Big Ben settle somewhere in between there and the ugly play we saw earlier this year.
OCTOBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Chase Claypool - Struggles in OT win Claypool (hamstring) had two receptions (seven targets) for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Seahawks.
Impact Claypool was dealing with a hamstring injury coming into this contest, but he was cleared for action and seemed to be moving fine on the two occasions Ben Roethlisberger was actually able to connect with his wideout. The 23-year-old had been trending positively prior to this dud, posting 14 receptions, 226 yards and a touchdown over his previous two contests. We will write this off as rare poor outing, as Claypool is a strong fantasy asset moving forward with JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) out for the rest of the year. The Steelers are heading into their bye week with a matchup against Cleveland on tap for Week 8.

Diontae Johnson - Leads team in targets on SNF Johnson caught nine of 13 targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over Seattle.
Impact Johnson also added 25 yards on a beautifully drawn up end-around that almost got the receiver into the end zone. Last week's stat line (two receptions for 72 yards and a TD) was a bit of an anomaly volume-wise given the low total pass attempts, but Sunday's double-digit targets was a better representation of what kind of usage we could see from Johnson going forward now that JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) is on IR. The Steelers are entering their bye week, with a matchup against the Browns set for Week 8.
