Wheaton had six receptions for 62 yards and a touchdown in Pittsburgh's win over Denver on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Targeted 11 times by Ben Roethlisberger, Wheaton managed to exceed 50 yards for a fourth straight game, and has scored three touchdowns over that span. He will be hard-pressed to keep his recent surge in production going in Week 15 against a Ravens defense that limited Wheaton to just one catch for 18 yards earlier this season.

Wheaton had four receptions on seven targets for 65 yards in Pittsburgh's win over Cincinnati on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wheaton totaled 50 or more yards for the third straight game, but was unable to score for the first time during that stretch. With Antonio Brown, Martavis Bryant and Heath Miller seeing more looks from quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Wheaton may face similar results in Week 15 against the Broncos.

Wheaton had three receptions for 50 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' win over the Colts on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wheaton made the most of his six targets and scored on the final drive of the first half. After a slow start this season, Wheaton has put together back-to-back solid outings, totaling 251 yards and two touchdowns. He faces the Bengals in Week 14, against whom he had just one catch for five yards earlier this season.

Wheaton exploded at Seattle on Sunday, catching nine of 11 targets for a career-high 201 yards and a touchdown.
EDGE Analysis
The Seahawks did a great job taking away Antonio Brown, who caught six passes for just 51 yards, so that freed up Wheaton to make a number of big plays, including a 69-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. Considering Wheaton doesn't get a lot of looks, and has gone over 50 yards just three times this season, it would be unwise to expect another game like this. If you need Wheaton next week, however, he'll have a favorable matchup against Indianapolis.

Wheaton caught one pass for minus two yards in the Steelers' 38-35 win against the Raiders on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Wheaton was targeted four times, and dropped a sure touchdown pass, in what was certainly his worst outing of the season. It would appear that he has no fantasy value at this time.

Wheaton (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Wheaton has only thirteen catches on the year and has been less busy since Martavis Bryant returned to action, but he is available if you need him.

Wheaton (ankle) returned to a full practice Friday and is probable for Sunday's game against the Raiders.
EDGE Analysis
Wheaton's modest production to date limits his fantasy utility to deeper formats, more so now that fellow wideout Martavis Bryant is back in action for the Steelers.

Wheaton (ankle) returned to a limited practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
We'll have to see if Wheaton draws an official probable or questionable Week 9 injury designation, though at this stage the wideout's modest production limits his value to deeper fantasy formats.

Wheaton (ankle) did not practice Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
With 13 catches for 257 yards and a TD in eight game to date, Wheaton -- whose season-high in catches occurred back in Week 1 -- is off the fantasy radar in most formats, more so with Martavis Bryant (illness) back in the team's wideout mix.

Wheaton caught 1-of-2 targets for 5 yards in the Steelers' 16-10 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Another poor showing for Wheaton, who has not had more than three receptions in a game this season, and just once in his last 12 games. Considering he has only three touchdowns and has exceeded 75 receiving yards in a game just once in his career, it is safe to say that Wheaton has been a disappointment since being drafted in the third round in 2013.
