Najee Harris has knee discomfort.

Pryor's tweet went on to say it won't affect his game participation for Week 11, which is a contest against the Bengals. While all the hype was around Warren leading into last week's game, Harris ran 20 times for 99 yards, both were season highs. Meanwhile Warren had nine carries for 37 yards and added three catches for 40 yards, so he's still trending up as the 12 touches were a season high.

While the Steelers aren't changing their collective mindset, Tomlin acknowledged running back Jaylen Warren may continue to see his role in the offense increase during the second half of the season.

"He's a quality back this made some plays," Tomlin said of Warren. "We'll keep giving him an opportunity to do so. And maybe he'll write that script [as a featured back]."

The undrafted rookie, who earned a spot on the team's initial 53-man roster following an impressive training camp, ran 29 times for a 5.3 yards-per-carry average during the season's first eight games, the story said. Tomlin was recently asked about Harris possibly being injured and beat reporter Chris Adamski tweeted Tomlin replied: "To what degrees, I don't know, he's playing so obviously he's healthy enough to play." There's been talk for a few weeks that Warren could get more work, but coming off a bye would seem like a good time to actually do it. Warren had 9 touches in a blowout loss to Philly and also had 9 in a blowout loss to the Bills, the most he's had in a game.

Tomlin: "We've been playing Jaylen Warren more and will continue to do so."

This isn't what Harris owners who spent a first round pick on the running back this summer want to hear. Warren showed a spark in an otherwise lackluster game for the Steelers against the Bills in Week 5. Warren carried five times for 24 yards and hauled in four catches for 39 yards. This could be a way for the team to try and light a spark under Harris, but things won't get any easier as they next host the Buccaneers in Week 6.

For the second game in a row, the Steelers found success when they went to their tempo offense. On four of seven plays in the Steelers’ first scoring drive against the Browns, the team used no huddle and moved the ball 75 yards in three minutes. On the second scoring drive, the Steelers went no-huddle on just three of 10 plays, but two of those plays picked up first downs.

“We did pretty good with the tempo,” Chase Claypool said. “We might be able to go back to that if, uh, our offense is stalling a little bit, maybe we add some tempo to switch up the momentum or the flow of the game.”

The story was about signs of progress for the Steelers offense. The team did find some success using an up-tempo offense. Last year, the story pointed out, the team had similar issues and mainly went no-huddle only in the second half with Ben Roethlisberger as the QB, but pointed out the team did go up-tempo in the first half of last week's game with Cleveland. That's perhaps a good sign. The story also mentioned Warren has developed into a nice compliment to Harris, and if you're a Harris owner, Warren should probably be on your roster.

Najee Harris was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice but was a full-go the following two days.

This put a major damper on anyone who went out and spent FAAB on Jaylen Warren during waiver runs this week, but it would be a good idea to hold him on your roster as we continue to keep an eye on Najee Harris' foot. Given the Steelers' historic running back usage, if Harris is healthy heading into a game, we should expect him to handle a vast majority of the workload.

Najee Harris told Adam Schein of SiriusXM’s Mad Dog Sports Radio that the injury is “nothing too crazy” and that he’ll use Tuesday’s off day to continue healing before he gets back on the field to prepare for the Steelers’ Week Two home game against the Patriots.

“I’ll be back at practice this week. And then I will be playing this weekend,” Harris said.

It's certainly great news at this point. But we know by now we can't always trust players when it comes to talking about their health and their playing status. We'll continue to keep an eye on it because Harris wasn't able to return to the game. For Harris owners, it may be a good time to try to pick up Warren just in case things change with Harris.

The former first-round pick was named as one of Pittsburgh’s five co-captains for the 2022 season Monday, along with second-year running back Najee Harris, linebacker T.J. Watt, defensive tackle Cam Heyward and safety Miles Killebrew.

Related Players: Kenny Pickett

The 28-year-old has been competing for the starting job this offseason alongside 2022 first-round pick Kenny Pickett and last year’s backup quarterback Mason Rudolph. The Steelers are in win-now mode with or without Ben Roethlisberger, so regardless of Pickett's progression the team is going to start whoever gives them the best chance to compete.

It would seem as if Benny Snell Jr. has been supplanted as the first option after Najee Harris in Pittsburgh.

Najee led the league in backfield touch% last season, so it's unlikely that UDFA Jaylen Warren gets much run in 2022 as long as Harris is healthy, but this is at least an interesting development in Dynasty circles.

Steelers Najee Harris out in normal gear stretching with nothing on his foot. Pat Freiermuth and Chase Claypool are out here. Not in practice uniforms.

This updates a post from earlier today where it was reported Harris hopped off the field on Monday after a possible injury. Obviously good news Harris is reported to be back at practice today.

Najee Harris hopped off practice field yesterday at Steelers camp.

There were no other details other than GM Omar Khan says he doesn’t foresee it to be an issue.
