Steelers giving embattled WR prime reps in practice this week.
Martavis Bryant was back working with the first-team offense Monday when the Steelers resumed practice after a four-day break on their bye.
After being benched against the Detroit Lions on Oct. 29 because of his controversial social media posts, Bryant is looking for a chance to rejoin his teammates on the field. He has been given no indication the benching will extend past that one game. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
Nerdy Football Analysis: You can go ahead and give Bryant a look as a WR3/4 or flex in super-deep formats and large-field GPPs in DFS in a great match-up with Indy, but don’t be surprised if JuJu Smith-Schuster out-snaps him and outperforms him the rest of the way in 2017. In standard leagues, JSS is the better play.
