    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Ties career high in rushing yards

    Jaylen Warren rushed 17 times for 143 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for no gain in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.Warren tied his single-game career high in rushing yards with Sunday's performance, which was partly fueled by a season-long 51-yard run. Warren now has back-to-back 100-yard efforts on the ground for the first time this season, and he snapped a brief two-game rushing TD drought Sunday with a one-yard run early in the third quarter that closed out the scoring for the afternoon. Warren is already up to 704 rushing yards on a career-best 5.9 yards per carry heading into a Week 9 road showdown against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 15 following a Week 8 bye.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Piles up yardage in Paris

    Jaylen Warren carried the ball 18 times for 101 yards and caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Saints.The 21 touches tied his season high, while Rico Dowdle got 15 as the Pittsburgh Steelers went with a ground-heavy game plan. Warren has topped 100 scrimmage yards in four of the last five games, racking up 472 rushing yards and a TD along with a 17-233-1 line on 24 targets during that hot stretch. He'll remain one of the key pieces of the Pittsburgh offense heading into a Week 8 clash at home against a Cleveland defense that Warren recorded 126 combined yards against in Week 4.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Workload shrinks in Dowdle's return

    Jaylen Warren carried the ball 14 times for 50 yards and caught two of four targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 26-19 overtime win over the Buccaneers.While Warren still led the Pittsburgh Steelers' backfield, his touch volume and production took a dip as Rico Dowdle returned from a three-game absence due to a toe injury, with Dowdle turning 10 touches into 49 scrimmage yards. As long as coach Mike McCarthy insists on using a timeshare between the two, Warren will be hard-pressed to repeat the outstanding numbers he compiled while Dowdle was on the shelf. Warren will try to make a bigger impact in Week 7 against the Saints in Paris.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Leader of Pittsburgh's backfield

    Head coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that he views Jaylen Warren as "our featured player right now," Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.During the offseason, McCarthy said that he viewed the Pittsburgh Steelers' backfield as a 50-50 split between Warren and Rico Dowdle (toe). However, Warren has solidified his RB1 role over the Steelers' last three games with Dowdle on the sidelines, with the former accumulating 490 yards and two touchdowns on 61 touches (49 carries, 12 catches on 16 targets) in that span. It appears Warren is the clear lead back for the Steelers even Dowdle returns, which could happen as soon as this Sunday against the Buccaneers.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Two long TDs in win over Indy

    Jaylen Warren carried the ball 15 times for 101 yards and a touchdown and caught all six of his targets for 87 yards and another TD in Sunday's 34-22 win over the Colts.The fifth-year back set the tone for the afternoon when he took a checkdown from Aaron Rodgers and turned it into an 80-yard score to begin the Pittsburgh Steelers' second possession. Warren then added a 50-yard TD run right after halftime, becoming the first player in Pittsburgh franchise history with rushing and receiving touchdowns of 50-plus yards in the same game. He also become just the sixth player in league history, and the first since Herschel Walker in 1986, with an 80-yard TD catch and a 50-yard TD run in the same game -- a list that includes Hall of Famers Jim Brown and Gale Sayers as well. Warren's 188 scrimmage yards were a career best, and he continues to make the case that he deserves a bell-cow workload, turning 61 touches over the last three games into 490 combined yards, along with Sunday's two touchdowns. Even if Rico Dowdle (toe) returns to the lineup in Week 6 against the Buccaneers, Warren should be locked into the lead role in the backfield.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Full control of backfield again Sunday

    Jaylen Warren will remain the Pittsburgh Steelers' unquestioned lead back in Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Colts due to Rico Dowdle (toe) having been declared inactive for the contest.Warren has thrived with the additional opportunity afforded by Dowdle's two-game absence to date, as the former has logged 23 total touches apiece in each contest and compiled 302 scrimmage yards in the process. Warren should be in store for a similar workload Sunday against a Colts defense that's surrendered 4.3 yards per carry and 11.1 yards per reception to running backs through four games.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Strong production with lead role

    Jaylen Warren rushed 17 times for 93 yards and secured three of six targets for 33 yards in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 27-24 loss to the Browns on Thursday.Warren once again had near total control of the Steelers' ground attack, as Rico Dowdle (toe) missed a second consecutive contest. As he'd done in the Week 3 win over the Bengals, Warren capitalized on the opportunity to comfortably eclipse the century mark in total yards. Warren compiled 220 rushing yards and another 82 yards through the air over the last two games while serving as the unquestioned lead back, but if Dowdle is able to make it back for a Week 5 matchup against the Colts on Sunday, Oct. 11, the former will see a hit to his touches.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Stellar showing in dual role

    Jaylen Warren rushed 17 times for 127 yards and secured three of four targets for 49 yards in the Pittsburgh Steelers' 30-27 win over the Bengals on Sunday.Warren had the Steelers' backfield to himself Sunday due to the absence of Rico Dowdle (toe), and the former took full advantage. Filling his usual versatile role, Warren came within striking distance of his single-game career high of 143 rushing yards, and he would have easily blown by that figure had an 87-yard run just before the midway point of the fourth quarter not been nullified by a DK Metcalf holding penalty. If Dowdle is unable to beat the short turnaround for a Week 4 road matchup against the Browns on Thursday night, Warren will be in store for another hefty workload in the divisional clash.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Cleared to play Sunday

    Jaylen Warren (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.A limited participant throughout Week 3 prep before being deemed questionable heading into Sunday, Warren ultimately received the green light to play. After splitting the snaps and touches out of the backfield fairly equitably with Rico Dowdle this season before Dowdle missed the entire fourth quarter of the Week 2 loss to the Patriots with a toe injury, Warren could be primed for a workhorse role in Week 3. Dowdle won't be available against the Bengals, leaving Travis Homer and Lew Nichols as the available depth options behind Warren, who played every offensive snap in the fourth quarter last week while Dowdle was sidelined.

    Steelers' Jaylen Warren: Likely to play Sunday

    Jaylen Warren (shoulder), who is listed as questionable for Week 3, is expected to play Sunday versus the Bengals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.Warren was limited during the entirety of Week 3 prep due to a shoulder injury, while fellow RB Rico Dowdle was ruled out for Sunday as a result of a toe issue. Assuming Warren is deemed active approximately 90 minutes before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, he should be the primary backfield option for the Pittsburgh Steelers offense, while practice-squad members Travis Homer and Lew Nichols likely will be the complementary options.
