Calvin Austin III Could Win Starting Slot Role
1 year agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III has reportedly been looking impressive during training camp. The 24-year-old snagged a touchdown in his preseason debut and that could be just the start of good things to come for Austin. It sounds like Austin is currently the favorite to win the starting slot role in Pittsburgh. Austin has expanded his role this summer and has done well alongside offensive coordinator Matt Canada. The former fourth-round pick will be playing his first NFL snaps this season. He missed all of last season due to a foot injury. He could be a sleeper name worth monitoring this season.
