James Conner Confident He'll Play In Week 3
5 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (knee) said on Monday that he's confident that he will play in Week 3 against the 49ers after tests showed no significant damage to his knee. If he plays at less than 100 percent this Sunday without quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow), Conner will be more of an RB2 and could lose work to backup Jaylen Samuels. If you own Conner and don't have Samuels as the handcuff, pick him up this week off the waiver wire. Samuels is owned in just 35 percent of Yahoo leagues currently.
