Steelers' Justin Hunter seeing Martavis Bryant's reps in practice
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Justin Hunter has been getting Martavis Bryant's snaps in practice, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
In case you missed it, Bryant has been causing a stir with trade requests and social media comments of late. That, plus his calling in sick yesterday, probably led to his coach telling him that he'll be inactive for Sunday's game. In the meantime, it looks like Hunter will serve as the team's deep threat against the Detroit Lions.
At this time, we project Hunter for very minimal production, but our models had Bryant pegged for 3.8 targets and 1.8 catches so Hunter is only a very deep fantasy option. He comes in at $4,500 on FanDuel this week.
