People hating Roman Wilson… that is absolutely absurd.

He is struggling with injuries.

It is an important part of this violent game.

He will come back and show what he can do.

Alex, is it safe to assume Roman Wilson is done this year?

It never sounded like Tomlin was confident in his abilities to contribute this year before the injury.

Total disappointment with Roman Wilson. It feels like he’s destined for a redshirt rookie season. #Steelers
