Lance runs 76 percent of his routes from outside, and Jordyn Tyson won't be back for at least another week... Pittsburgh's secondary giving up the highest boundary target share the the 11th highest adjusted yards per attempt on boundary passes doesn't hurt Bryce Lance's Week 7 case...

Lance's 76% boundary rate exploits Steelers' worst-in-league boundary target share.

Lance runs 76 percent of his routes from outside and faces Pittsburgh's secondary, which allows the highest boundary target share and the 11th highest adjusted yards per attempt on boundary passes. Only eight teams have given up more receiving yardage than the Steelers on boundary throws, and only four have given up more boundary touchdowns, making Lance a viable flex play in Week 7.
