LATROBE, Pa. — The Aaron Rodgers-to-Roman Wilson connection took a step in the right direction on Tuesday, starting with the first drill of practice. During Seven Shots, Rodgers was flushed out of the pocket. He rifled a pass between two defenders and into the outstretched hands of a diving Wilson.

On Saturday, Wilson carried that momentum into his second preseason game. He dusted quarters coverage from Jamel Dean over the top on a post route, hauling in a 42 yard connection from Mason Rudolph. Later on, he would separate on a crosser easily, gaining a chunk gain of 30 yards on another reception.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers shared his honest feelings on WR Roman Wilson, believing he needs to stop worrying about earning his approval.
