Jaylen Warren: Finds end zone as receiverWarren rushed the ball eight times for 13 yards in Sunday's 27-22 win over the Ravens. He added three receptions on three targets for 49 yards and a touchdown.
Jaylen Warren had eight rushes for 13 yards in the Steelers' Week 14 win against the Ravens, adding four catches for 49 yards and a touchdown.Warren's eight carries led the Pittsburgh backfield, as Kenneth Gainwell had four rushes for 15 yards and a touchdown. Gainwell was second on the team with six targets, but it was Warren who had a 38-yard screen pass touchdown in the second half. Warren remains the nominal lead back for the run-first Steelers, but Gainwell's route running involvement and his red zone usage puts a damper on Warren's weekly upside. Warren, averaging 13.8 rushes per game, will be a top-24 running back next week against the Dolphins.
Kenneth Gainwell had four rushes for 15 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' Week 14 win against the Ravens, adding six catches for 27 yards.Gainwell continued operating as the Steelers' primary pass-catching back, seeing the second most targets among Pittsburgh players behind DK Metcalf (12). Gainwell ran a pass route on 19 of the team's 36 drop backs while Jaylen Warren had 16 routes and four receptions on four targets, including a touchdown. Gainwell entered Week 14 as the seventh most targeted running back in the NFL. Gainwell's role in the Steelers offense has kept him viable in PPR formats. He should remain a flex play in 14-team formats next week against the Dolphins, who have been generous to pass catchers out of the backfield in 2025.
