Steelers D/ST Primed To Bounce Back Against Raiders
2 months agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers came up short defensively in Week 5 but are in a great spot to bounce back against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6. Second-year quarterback Aidan O'Connell is set to make his first start of the season for the Raiders after the team benched Gardner Minshew II last week. O'Connell flashed some potential as a rookie but was largely inconsistent in his time as a starter. Although the Steelers will be missing a few key defensive starters, they should still manage to find success against a Las Vegas offense that averages the third-fewest rushing yards per contest and is without star wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring). Fire up Pittsburgh's DST as a top option in all fantasy formats on Sunday.
