The Pittsburgh Steelers will need more out of all of their wide receivers in Week 18, including Calvin Austin.
That's because wide receiver DK Metcalf is serving the second game of his two-game suspension in the crucial Week 18 contest against the Baltimore Ravens.
However, Austin isn't doing anything early on in the Sunday night contest.

Is Calvin Austin playing tonight?
Yes, Austin is active and healthy, and he was even targeted on Pittsburgh's first drive but couldn't reel in quarterback Aaron Rodgers' pass.
It feels like a matter of when, not if Austin gets on the stat sheet with the Steelers being short-handed at wide receiver.
