BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 13% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jaylen Warren has remained positioned among a select tier of enticing handcuff options throughout most of the regular season after he seized the role of Pittsburgh’s RB2 during training camp.
Warren has been an intriguing roster addition due to the potential that he would commandeer a significant workload if Najee Harris would be sidelined for any reason during the year. A hamstring issue prevented Warren from ascending into a sizable workload back when that situation developed in Week 12, as Harris contended with an abdomen issue.
However, Warren has regained his health while reclaiming the Steelers’ backup role over Benny Snell Jr., who he had previously leapfrogged on Pittsburgh’s depth chart in August.
Warren was entrusted with 11 carries when the Steelers hosted Carolina in Week 15, while he also generated 38 yards and a touchdown. Harris unsurprisingly commandeered the majority of rushing attempts (24), while no other backs were involved with the distribution of touches.
Warren is still available in nearly 85% of all leagues and would approach RB1 status for fantasy managers if Harris is absent during any of your postseason matchups.
