Is James Conner Playing in Week 15?
Steelers RB James Conner (quad) has been downgraded to out Monday night vs. the Bengals. Benny Snell is likely to start in his place.
Fantasy Impact
Conner was originally listed as questionable to play in Week 15 with the quad injury, but the Steelers will hold him out of a very winnable game against the Bengals. Look for Benny Snell Jr. to get the early-down snaps with Jaylen Samuels operating as the third-down back.
