Steelers' Antonio Brown is reportedly a long shot to play in Wild Card round
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown (calf) is unlikely to be ready for the Wild Card round of the AFC playoffs, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
What It Means:
Brown's torn calf muscle will cost him the rest of the regular season, and it looks like he could be out for the first round of the playoffs as well. Look for Martavis Bryant, Juju Smith-Schuster, and Eli Rogers to continue to see increased target shares while Brown is out. Le'Veon Bell should also see an even larger role in the offense.
Brown is averaging 18.6 FanDuel points per game so far this season.
