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.
