Fantasy Impact
Warren got banged up in Sunday's win over the Lions. He played the whole game, rushing for two 45-yard touchdowns in the final quarter. He should still be good to go for Week 17 against the Browns.
Jaylen Warren ran for 143 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries in the Steelers 29-24 win over the Lions. He also caught 2-of- targets for eight yards receiving.
Fantasy Impact
Warren found the end zone on back-to-back drives in the fourth quarter on a pair of 45-yard runs. It was the top rushing performance of his career. It remains a committee with Kenneth Gainwell in the Steelers backfield.
Battling an illness that landed him on the injury report leading up to kickoff, Jaylen Warren struggled to generate momentum during Monday night's victory over Miami, rushing 12 times for 33 yards. The starter added three receptions for 15 yards but was clearly limited, opening the door for Kenneth Gainwell to outgain him significantly and lead the backfield in touches.
Fantasy Impact
This marked a rare deviation in the Steelers' rushing hierarchy, as Gainwell reached double-digit carries for only the third time this season. Assuming a return to full health, Warren should be positioned to reclaim his lead role when Pittsburgh travels to Detroit in Week 16.
