After several weeks of being practically nonexistent, Martavis Bryant resurfaced with a big afternoon on Sunday. Bryant caught four passes for 109 yards and a touchdown. The bulk of Bryant's production came from a 94-yard touchdown. Without the score, Bryant would have posted numbers similar to what we've seen over the past few weeks.

Bryant went through a four-week stretch of impressive numbers, scoring six touchdowns in that time frame. His production stalled, however, and Bryant totaled three receptions for 34 yards through his past few games. Bryant’s touchdown marks his seventh of the season through seven games started.
Fantasy impact: As exciting as it is for Bryant owners to see somewhat of a resurgence, it's important to realize that Bryant would have posted a 3-15-0 stat line without his touchdown catch. The Steelers will face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. It's a tempting matchup for Bryant owners, but the reality is that he's more of a WR4 than anything else.
At this point in the season, Bryant owners are better off using him as an emergency plug-and-play.
