Antonio Brown can play in the slot, but the Steelers’ All-Pro receiver is much more valuable on the outside. The same goes for Martavis Bryant. With Lance Moore gone and the Steelers not open to alter any part of Todd Haley’s highly successful three-receiver formations, the Steelers had to find somebody to play the slot. There was only one logical place to turn. “It only made sense,” Markus Wheaton said. The Steelers finished up four weeks of spring practices Thursday with the same plan they went into it with — making Wheaton their top option in the slot after primary playing on the outside his first two years in the league. “We will see how it goes,” Wheaton said. “I am excited about doing something different.”
