Gunner Olszewski

Gunner Olszewski has been released by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Fantasy Impact

Pittsburgh brought in Olszewski a couple of offseasons ago to play a special-teams role, but he hasn't been good and is now getting released by the team to make room for Diontae Johnson to get activated from IR. He may find another home at some point but won't be relevant for fantasy purposes.

Steelers WR Gunner Olszewski is officially inactive for a Week 4 matchup with Houston.

Fantasy Impact

Olszewski was in concussion protocol but had reportedly cleared the process on Thursday. It appears that he is a healthy scratch for Week 4, but could return to the active roster in Week 5 if the Steelers’ coaching staff are just playing it safe with the veteran special teamer.

Steelers WR Gunner Olszewski is officially inactive for a Week 3 matchup with Las Vegas.

Fantasy Impact

Olszewski is inactive as he deals with a concussion he suffered against the Browns. Fantasy managers should expect Calvin Austin and Miles Boykin to see additional playing time in his absence.

According to Brooke Pryor of ESPN, WR Gunner Olszewski (concussion) is the only Pittsburgh Steeler who didn't practice Friday, and he is listed as out for Week 3's contest.

Fantasy Impact

Olszewski is used as a special teamer, and his absence won't have much of an effect on the offense. He is the only Steeler not on IR who is expected to miss time though, and he could be back next week.

Gunner Olszewski (concussion) won't return to Monday night's game against the Cleveland Browns.

Fantasy Impact

Olszewski is being evaluated for a concussion and won't return to Monday's game. He took a big hit after catching a pass that forced him to cough up the ball and left him shook up. We'll get more info on the severity of the injury later, but for now, Calvin Austin III will be in line for more work in his absence.
