The Pittsburgh Steelers are one injury away from starting rookie Germie Bernard on a stable basis in Week 3. The wide receiver room is depleted, and head coach Mike Tomlin is facing a depth chart that lists multiple starters as questionable or out for Sunday’s game, putting the fourth-round pick in line for his first meaningful NFL snaps.
Bernard is prepared for the moment. The team is thin behind DK Metcalf and George Pickens, and practice reps in weeks two and three have increased.
