Huddle Up: Wilson showed that he still has a little left in the tank, and the team will have to figure out what the future is at the position with Justin Fields also on an expiring contract. Wilson was mostly a QB2 for fantasy purposes in 2024, and that is likely where he'll be situated in 2025, too, wherever he ends up.

Huddle Up: Williams continues to be an afterthought in the Pittsburgh offense. He has nine total catches in nine games since joining the Steelers.

Huddle Up: Freiermuth has 15 receptions over the last two games, and he has been one of the bright spots during Pittsburgh's recent skid. He has four touchdowns in his last six games, and he has reached 60 yards three times in that span.

Huddle Up: Pickens has four catches in two game since returning from injury, and the Pittsburgh offense desperately need Pickens and Russell Wilson to recapture their big-play connection. Pickens will be a high-risk, high-reward option in playoff contests.

Huddle Up: Harris snuck over 1,000 yards for the year, but his production has been more volume based than anything. He is a safe bet for touches entering the postseason, but with the Steelers struggling, Harris may not be around more than one round.

Huddle Up: Wilson has been putting up some pedestrain numbers down the stretch, and the Steelers will enter the playoffs on a four-game losing streak. He will be hard to trust in playoff contests.

Huddle Up: Warren should continue to share playing time with Najee Harris during the regular season finale and can be a flex option in most fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: The Steelers still do not have a set seed in the playoffs, so Wilson probably will play most of the Week 18 game. He has struggled over the last few weeks and is only a possible option in some two-quarterback leagues.

Huddle Up: Fantasy managers still vying for a championship in Week 18 can probably expect the Steelers to play their starters for as long as they need to, as it is likely they would prefer to hold onto the No. 5 seed and play the Houston Texans as opposed to drop to No. 6 and likely meet the Baltimore Ravens for a third time (assuming the Ravens can dispatch of a three-win Cleveland Browns team). Wilson threw for 414 yards and three touchdowns against this week's opponent - the Cincinnati Bengals - a few weeks ago and could find himself in the low-end QB1 conversation this week given all of the lineup gymnastics teams usually engage in for Week 18.

Huddle Up: Fantasy managers still vying for a championship in Week 18 can probably expect the Steelers to play their starters for as long as they need to, as it is likely they would prefer to hold onto the No. 5 seed and play the Houston Texans as opposed to drop to No. 6 and likely meet the Baltimore Ravens for a third time (assuming the Ravens can dispatch of a three-win Cleveland Browns team). As such, Warren should be a viable RB2 consideration for fantasy managers this weekend.

Huddle Up: Austin had shown some life in recent weeks but wasn't productive with the return of George Pickens. The Steelers have at least locked down a postseason spot, so who knows what to expect from aspect of resting players next week. While Austin himself isn't likely to rest, QB Russell Wilson would be first in line for a break, and Pickens isn't far behind.

Huddle Up: Logging 83 total yards and no scores just doesn't get the job done for championship fantasy action, and hopefully you didn't chance a lineup spot on him. Harris and Co. could be in position to rest in Week 18 with a postseason berth locked up, so revisit this one once the Baltimore Week 17 game concludes to have a better idea if seeding matters. Harris would be a fringe RB2 if Pittsburgh starts everyone.

Huddle Up: The Steelers have locked themselves into a playoff spot, and it wouldn't be a surprise to see key players get rested in what could be an effectively meaningless game. More to come, but at least he has a decent enough matchup profile vs. Cincinnati should he go.

Huddle Up: Freiermuth owners could have used that last week! Spilled milk aside, he has an awesome matchup profile next week against Cincinnati, and we don't even know yet if Pittsburgh will rest starters based on having a playoff berth locked up.

Huddle Up: Next week, Pittsburgh hosts Cincinnati, but a playoff berth is locked up, so we certainly could see the Steelers rest multiple players. Should Warren play, he has RB2/flex appeal.

Huddle Up: It was a long day at the office for Wilson as his offensive line did him no favors. The Steelers are locked into the playoffs and host Cincinnati next week, so it's TBD whether we see Wilson on the field. He's a fringe QB1 in the event he plays.

Huddle Up: Pickens missed three games at the most critical time of the year for fantasy managers, but his return is a big boost for the Steelers and managers who were able to advance to their league championship games without him. Pittsburgh went 1-2 and averaged 19 points during his absence. Pickens could push for 10 or more targets and should be considered a strong WR2 option on Christmas Day.

Huddle Up: Williams has received a bigger role over the last few weeks with George Pickens sidelined, but it is not known if he will see less targets with Pickens expected back. Fantasy players likely have better options available and can keep Williams on the bench.

Huddle Up: Pickens has been sidelined for multiple weeks because of the injury, but head coach Mike Tomlin said he has a good chance to play in Week 16. Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation because Pickens is a weekly starting option when healthy.

Huddle Up: Williams has been more involved recently but has been held to under 40 yards in each of the last three games. He will see a few targets in Week 17 but can be avoided in fantasy leagues.

Huddle Up: The Steelers play on Christmas Day, so fantasy players will need to monitor Pickens' status over the next few days. He is the main option in the passing game when healthy and can be a starting option in all leagues if active.

Huddle Up: Warren is barely playable in Week 17 against a stout Kansas City Chiefs defense that has thoroughly owned running backs in 2024. To his credit, Kansas City will have played three times in 10 days come kickoff and has an injury to watch with DT Chris Jones (calf).

Huddle Up: We've seen the Chiefs handle big-bodied receivers of late, and Williams hasn't done enough on his own to warrant any fantasy attention in Week 17.

Huddle Up: The Chiefs allowed a score to Houston's Dalton Schultz in Week 16, marking the second score against by the position in the last six games. This is a quality matchup for volume in the checkdown game, which figures to be the clearest way we see any meaningful returns from Freiermuth.

Huddle Up: On paper, the upcoming matchup is as tough as it gets, and Harris' lack of explosiveness makes him little more than a high-risk flier for an unlikely touchdown plunge. KC will have played three times in 10 days come kickoff and has an injury to watch with DT Chris Jones (calf).

Huddle Up: Small, quicker receivers, like Austin, have the skill set to give this defense fits. We saw Houston's Tank Dell do just that in Week 16 before dislocating his kneecap. Austin has some value, regardless of whether WR George Pickens (hamstring) returns, which would free up CA3 from seeing a little extra attention. Either way, Austin is a dicey fantasy lottery ticket with a title on the line.
