Germie Bernard Flashes Star Potential With Steelers WRs Thinning

Bernard broke out in Week 6, catching 11 of 12 targets for 87 yards and a TD. His 25.7 PPR points made him the WR3 on the week. Roman Wilson went on IR and Ben Skowronek was ruled out, so Bernard moved inside, playing 61% of his snaps from the slot after a 44% rate over the first five weeks. He led the Steelers with 54 routes and drew a 28% target share. He and DK Metcalf combined for 27 of Pittsburgh’s 43 targets.
