Vannett caught his only target for a seven-yard gain during Thursday's 21-7 loss to Cleveland.
Vannett ended Thursday's mess with just 16 offensive snaps, by far a season low. The Ohio State product has recorded a reception in four of his last five games, but has not caught multiple passes in a game since Week 4 -- his first game with Pittsburgh after coming over from Seattle -- and has just one red-zone target this season. The good news, such as it is, is that Sunday brings a trip to Cincinnati to play a Bengals team that surrendered a season-high 28 yards to Vannett in that Week 4 contest.
