I think he just needs playing time. Steelers went immediately to Bryant, and IMHO, should have eased him back into the lineup. Hunter KILLED it last preseason, and actually had great rapport with Ben in practice. This is his year to shine, and I won't be surprised if he's the starting Z receiver week 1. No need to force Washington up the depth chart if he isn't ready. Washington will have to work hard to get the starting Z spot, and he has the potential to do it. This is going to be one of the toughest camp battles on the roster. Just watch!
