In Week 6, the rookie delivered the best performance of his young career, rewarding fantasy managers. In Pittsburgh's 26-19 overtime victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Bernard finished with 11 receptions for 87 yards and his first career touchdown. He scored 20.2 half-PPR fantasy points and is the current WR3 for the week. Bernard is trending toward every-week FLEX appeal, especially as the Steelers embrace a pass-first offense. In his age-42 season, the ageless Aaron Rodgers is averaging over 38 pass attempts per game, including a whopping 49 in Sunday's overtime victory.

Bernard's WR3 week signals every-week FLEX appeal as Steelers lean pass-first with Rodgers.

The rookie Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver delivered his best performance in Week 6 with 11 receptions for 87 yards and his first career touchdown, scoring 20.2 half-PPR fantasy points as WR3. The source projects Bernard is trending toward every-week FLEX appeal as the Steelers embrace a pass-first offense, with Aaron Rodgers averaging over 38 pass attempts per game (49 in Sunday's overtime victory). If that trend continues, Bernard's hot streak should sustain.
