ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Sammie Coates (ankle) will miss the start of training camp after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Coates, who has battled injuries that include his finger, hand and groin since the start of 2016, will miss the beginning of training camp after getting his knee scoped this week. Although the 24-year-old wide out is currently slated as the Steelers' WR4, he could find himself competing for a job and on the proverbial roster bubble as the highly-touted rookie, Ju Ju Smith-Schuster, could push him for his role.
