Roman Wilson is wasting little time making a huge first impression on new Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy, who couldn't help but sing the wide receiver's praises.
Speaking with reporters on Thursday, McCarthy pointed out that Wilson has been very impressive this offseason, highlighting the young wideout's work ethic and overall approach to the new offense.
"Just keep doing exactly what he's doing," McCarthy said about Wilson's offseason work ethic. "He's been here from Day 1. He was one of the first men to reach out, just clearly ask what the expectation was of him, how I view him, how I saw him fitting in as the roles as far as X, F, and Z. He's doing the work. He's had a great offseason. I just need him to keep showing up and keep working his tail off because he's got a skill set. There's a lot there to work with."
Arguably, what is most interesting about McCarthy's comments is that Wilson was one of the first within the Steelers organization to reach out to him, as it shows how excited he was to embrace the new regime.
Wilson may not have lived up to expectations in his first two seasons in the league, but he's clearly making the right impression this offseason and is readying for a potential breakout Year 3.
