James Conner Could Fill In For Le'Veon Bell
6 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner could fill in as the lead back in Week 1 against the Browns if Le'Veon Bell doesn't report to the team in time this week. According to NFL Research, the Steelers are 39-17 when quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, wide receiver Antonio Brown and Bell all play, but they are 14-10 when at least one of them misses a game. Conner would be a fantasy sleeper as a flex play if Bell were inactive on Sunday.
