BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jaylen Warren should be a priority add for fantasy managers, especially if you are a current Najee Harris owner.
While Warren returned in Week 6 after missing the last two games, his usage in both the running and passing game shows he still has a role in the Steelers' offense.
Though he only managed six carries for seven yards and added three catches, Warren's involvement in the passing game gives him a valuable floor in PPR leagues.

As the Steelers continue to manage Harris's workload, Warren's presence as the clear backup—and a capable pass-catcher—makes him a valuable handcuff for fantasy managers relying on Harris.
Warren is not only insurance for a potential Harris injury, but he also could have standalone value in deeper leagues. Harris has struggled with efficiency at times this season, and if the Steelers shift more opportunities to Warren, his role could expand in the coming weeks.
Given Warren's dual-threat ability and the potential for increased touches, he is a smart pickup for any Harris owner looking to protect against injury or add depth, particularly in an offense that relies heavily on its running backs.
