Steelers RB Rico Dowdle ruled out for Thursday night

Jarrett Bailey

Sep 30 · 3:22 PM EDT

Dowdle has been ruled out for Thursday night’s game against Cleveland due to a toe injury.

This will be his second consecutive absence after he suffered the injury during Pittsburgh’s Week 2 loss to New England.

Related Players: Jaylen Warren, Eli Heidenreich, Travis Homer, Lew Nichols

Fantasy Impact:

Warren should remain the clear centerpiece of Pittsburgh’s backfield after handling a heavy workload during Dowdle’s first absence. He enters Thursday night as a strong RB2 with three-down involvement, while Homer and rookie Eli Heidenreich provide depth without standalone fantasy value. Pittsburgh could also elevate Lew Nichols from the practice squad, as they did in Week 3.

Steelers RB Rico Dowdle officially OUT Week 3

Steelers ruled out RB Rico Dowdle for Sunday’s game vs. the Bengals due to his toe injury.

RB Jaylen Warren is questionable for Sunday due to his shoulder injury.

Related Players: Eli Heidenreich

Fantasy Impact:

Warren is boosted all the way up to the RB1/2 fringe, as a very good bet to handle a vast majority of touches on an offense that wants to keep the ball around the line of scrimmage.

Steelers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) day to day

Steelers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) checked out relatively OK following tests. He's considered to be day-to-day.

Related players: Jaylen Warren, Eli Heidenreich

Fantasy Impact:

Dowdle was carted to the locker room on Sunday. It's been a slow start for him, and he's mostly splitting time with Warren, although Warren has out-touched him the first two weeks. Dowdle has been involved in the passing game with two catches each of the first two weeks, putting him at least in the flex conversation for fantasy lineups. If Dowdle can't go, the rookie Heidenreich could be more involved with the majority of the work likely going to Warren.
