Steelers extend RB Jaylen Warren

Mike Garafolo on X

yesterday · 11:58 AM EDT

A two-year extension for Steelers RB Jaylen Warren, per his agents.

Related players: Jaylen Warren, Kaleb Johnson, Kenneth Gainwell

Fantasy Impact:

The agents pointed out Warren went from Snow Community College to Utah State to Oklahoma State before signing with the Steelers as an undrafted free agent. The Steelers RB situation looks to be a complicated one as the team also drafted Johnson. Some reports suggest Johnson hasn't been as great as expected so far through camp and practices, but he is still expected to get some of the workload. Gainwell comes over from the Eagles and can pretty much do it all. He was often on the field in two-minute situations and passing downs.

PHI RB Kenneth Gainwell - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Arizona Cardinals
Kenneth Gainwell had a nice game with nine touches for 79 total yards. He continues to get, on average, 45% of the snaps so there are games when he can be a factor.

This week, the Cardinals come to town and have been bad defensively all season. However, not enough numbers each week to earn a starting spot. Keep Gainwell on the bench for Week 17.
