• Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Two carries in Week 2

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Patterson carried the ball twice for three yards during Sunday's 13-6 win over the Broncos. Patterson played just four offensive snaps, down from the nine he saw during the season opener. Despite his limited playing time, he's seen multiple carries in each of the first two games of the season. However, Patterson is unlikely to be relevant in most fantasy formats as long as Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren are healthy.

• Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Tallies four carries in victory

  10D ago • By RotoWire

  Patterson rushed four times for 13 yards during Sunday's 18-10 win over the Falcons. Patterson was on the field for just nine offensive snaps during Sunday's Week 1 matchup, but he saw ample work when on the field and ultimately had more carries than fellow reserve running back Jaylen Warren. However, it seems likely that Patterson will remain the No. 3 option at running back since Warren was on the field for 21 offensive snaps, and his advantage in touch volume could simply have been a product of his greater familiarity with new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith's scheme. Patterson is also in line to serve as the Steelers' top kickoff returner in 2024, although he failed to get one he could take back in Week 1.

• Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Long touchdown to close preseason

  26D ago • By RotoWire

  Patterson rushed the ball three times for 31 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 31-24 preseason loss to the Lions. With Jaylen Warren (hamstring) sidelined, Patterson was the second back on the field behind Najee Harris. Patterson played with both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, but his highlight of the game came on the team's first drive, when he ripped through the middle of the field for a 31-yard touchdown scamper. Warren looks likely to be ready for Week 1, but Patterson would likely get extra passing-down work and some occasional carries if Warren is unable to suit up.

• Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Activated after physical pass

  08/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Patterson (hamstring) was activated by the Steelers on Friday as he passed his physical, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Patterson was placed on the reserve/non-football back in late July, but the passing of a physical was enough for him to now get activated. The veteran running back and return specialist will likely see the bulk of his opportunities this season as the Steelers' kick returner, as he sits behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren in the backfield depth chart.

• Steelers' Cordarrelle Patterson: Dealing with hamstring issue

  07/24/2024 • By RotoWire

  The Steelers placed Patterson on the reserve/non-football injury list Wednesday with a hamstring injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Patterson was evidently injured while away from the team, hence his placement on the NFI list. He can be activated at any time during training camp or the preseason. Patterson signed a two-year deal with the Steelers in the offseason, giving Pittsburgh an experienced return man as well as depth out of the backfield behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren.
