Outlook Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard at New England — Expanded Role Beckons with Pittman Out
Rookie receiver Germie Bernard is positioned for an expanded snap share in Week 2 after starter Michael Pittman Jr. was ruled out due to a foot injury. Bernard logged just three snaps and zero targets in the opener, but Pittsburgh's coaching staff and quarterback Aaron Rodgers have praised the second-round pick's development and run-after-catch ability throughout the summer.
While Pittman's absence clears a path for snaps alongside DK Metcalf and Roman Wilson, Bernard remains a wait-and-see asset. Our weekly projection pegs him for approximately 2 receptions and 24 receiving yards (5.1 fantasy points). Sitting at just a 4% roster rate, he is best left on fantasy benches until his weekly role is proven.
