Kenneth Gainwell logs 10 touches in Week 17 loss

Kenneth Gainwell rushed for 26 yards on seven carries in the Steelers 13-6 loss to the Browns. He caught 3-of-4 targets for 12 yards.

Fantasy Impact

Gainwell and the Steelers' offense struggled to get going all game against a solid Browns' defense. He continues to split time with Jaylen Warren, which should continue in a matchup with the Ravens in Week 18 to decide the winner of the AFC North.
