Steelers' Germie Bernard: Team-high 35 receiving yards vs. Pats
Bernard caught four passes on eight targets for 35 yards during the Steelers' 20-3 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
The rookie second-rounder operated as the WR3 due to the absence of Michael Pittman (foot). Aaron Rodgers struggled at Gillette Stadium, but Bernard did his part by leading the Steelers pass catchers in receiving yards while finishing second in catches behind Roman Wilson (five) and second in targets to DK Metcalf (nine). Pittman's status for Week 3 against the Bengals on Sept. 27 is up in the air, but even if he was ruled out, Bernard's production (along with the other Steelers pass catchers) will be capped unless Rodgers improves his play.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Set for larger role Sunday
Bernard is set to be the No. 3 option at wide receiver in Sunday's game against the Patriots, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
The second-round rookie will have his first opportunity as a starting member of the Steelers offense due to Michael Pittman (foot) being ruled out ahead of the contest. Bernard saw just three offensive snaps in the team's Week 1 win over the Falcons, a number that should skyrocket in Week 2.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Minimally involved Sunday
Bernard played three of Pittsburgh's 67 offensive snaps during Sunday's 20-13 win versus the Falcons.
Bernard was able to make his pro debut in Week 1, but it didn't result in any production in the box score. Only DK Metcalf (60), Michael Pittman (56) and 2024 third-rounder Roman Wilson (35) saw any snaps at wide receiver for the Steelers on Sunday.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Finds end zone in final exhibition game
Bernard caught one of two targets for a 13-yard touchdown in Thursday's 28-27 preseason loss to the Bills.
The Steelers rested their starters and key personnel, but Bernard played the first quarter and connected with Will Howard (head) on a one-play scoring drive after Buffalo's Ray Davis muffed a punt. Bernard's usage Thursday would seem to suggest he'll begin the season No. 4 on the wide receiver depth chart behind DK Metcalf (undisclosed), Michael Pittman (hamstring) and Roman Wilson, but the 2026 second-round pick could find himself in a key role early if either of the injured veterans ahead of him wind up not being ready for Week 1.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Fails to record catch in Friday's loss
Bernard did not catch his lone target during the Steelers' 17-0 preseason loss to the Jets on Friday.
Both DK Metcalf (undisclosed) and Michael Pittman (hamstring) were sidelined for Friday's exhibition contest, so Bernard joined Roman Wilson and Ben Skowronek in the Steelers' first-team offense. The offense struggled with both Will Howard and Drew Allar under center, and Bernard failed to log any receiving yards despite playing 29 snaps. The rookie second-rounder is currently listed as the Steelers' No. 4 wideout behind Metcalf, Pittman and Wilson, and Thursday's preseason finale against the Bills presents Bernard his last opportunity to push for the WR3 job before the conclusion of training camp.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Takes advantage of opportunity Thursday
Bernard caught four of five targets for 51 yards in Thursday's 28-9 preseason win over the Packers.
'The rookie wideout tied tight end Robert Tonyan for the Steelers' lead in receptions, but that production came with Mason Rudolph under center as Aaron Rodgers got the night off, and the team's top two wideouts DK Metcalf (undisclosed) and Michael Pittman (leg) sidelined. While it's encouraging that Bernard took advantage of his opportunity, and he did out-produce his main competition for the WR3 role in Roman Wilson, he still has a lot to prove to land on the fantasy radar in most formats.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Chance to shine in preseason opener
Bernard will have the opportunity to handle an expanded role in Thursday's preseason opener against the Packers due to injuries to both Michael Pittman (right leg) and DK Metcalf (undisclosed), Jacob Punturi of SI.com reports.
The Steelers released their initial depth chart Aug. 5, which had Roman Wilson pencilled in as the WR3 behind Pittman and Metcalf, while Bernard was listed as a second-teamer. A second-round selection of the Steelers in the 2026 NFL Draft, Bernard has been battling against Wilson for a spot in three-wide sets, and Thursday's preseason game will provide a stage on which both wideouts can audition for that role.

Steelers' Germie Bernard: Battling Wilson for WR3 spot
Bernard got most of his reps in the slot with the first-team offense at Friday's practice, Alan Saunders of Steelers Now reports.
Bernard is competing for the third spot on the wide receiver depth chart with Roman Wilson, who mostly worked on the outside with the second-team offense Friday. That usage marked a departure from Wednesday's practice, when Wilson logged most of the reps in three-receiver sets alongside DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman. Bernard has also seen some time on the outside, with Wilson shifting into the slot, so the Steelers are still identifying their best combinations and pecking order at wide receiver at this early stage of training camp. Bernard is a rookie second-round pick, while Wilson was a third-round selection in 2024.
