Maybe our Coaches have too many wide receivers on the "turnstile".
Possibly ushering them in and out at practice.
The Steelers settled in on Ju Ju as the #2 receiver and didn't care if Martavis Bryant didn't like it or saw less practice reps.
For example, make say Tyler Boyd the #2 and go with it so that he can develop and lock it down rather than the "turnstile" of Lafell/Boyd etc.
Not sure if they plan on Ross being the #2 receiver or a #3 deep threat or a specialty package guy or what.
Seems to me that they may be experimenting with all of the receivers we have while the Steelers define roles, then Ju Ju can get maximum reps developing into that defined #2 role.
Maybe others on the Board can expand on this.
