James Conner Could Return In Week 15
6 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (ankle) had a productive week of rehab and head coach Mike Tomlin is leaving the door open for his potential return in Week 15 against the Patriots. However, a lot would have to go right for Conner to play this weekend. That means that you shouldn't plan on having Conner for the fantasy semifinals. Rookie Jaylen Samuels worked as the clear lead back in Week 14, although Stevan Ridley did vulture a goal-line touchdown. Samuels will have RB2 upside, while Ridley is just a desperation flex if Conner misses another game.
