Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren handled nine carries for 41 yards and caught all four of his targets for 27 yards in a Week 11 win over the Baltimore Ravens. Warren was given double-digit touches for a fourth consecutive game but still failed to make much of an impact for fantasy purposes. Although he did earn a season-high of four opportunities through the air, he was out-targeted and outgained by Najee Harris in the passing game. Warren is yet to score a touchdown in 2024 and will likely continue to offer limited upside so long as Harris stays healthy. He can be stashed as a handcuff but should remain out of starting lineups in most formats heading into a Week 12 meeting with the Cleveland Browns.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (back) is officially active for Week 11 against the Baltimore Ravens. Warren had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction ahead of kickoff. He missed practice on Thursday before returning in a limited capacity on Friday. The 26-year-old has operated as the clear backup to Najee Harris this season, totaling 55 carries for 217 rushing yards and 14 catches for 96 receiving yards over the course of seven games. He did have his best performance of the season last week, totaling 66 rushing yards and 29 receiving yards. He also added 56 kick return yards but lost a fumble. Warren ranks as a low-end fantasy RB3 versus Baltimore's strong run defense.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (back) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. He didn't practice on Thursday, although he was back on the practice field for a limited session on Friday. Still, it wasn't enough for Warren to avoid a questionable tag heading into Week 11. The 26-year-old hasn't done much to benefit fantasy managers this season, totaling 217 yards off 55 carries to the tune of 3.9 yards per touch, adding 14 grabs for 96 yards. With Najee Harris in the lineup, Warren isn't expected to be involved enough to be considered a reliable fantasy option, so managers should consider keeping him on the bench for the AFC North matchup.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (back) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Warren sat out of Thursday's practice due to a back issue and was able to get through a limited session on Friday. His status seems uncertain heading into this weekend's game which should mean more carries for Najee Harris. Warren rushed 14 times for 66 yards during last week's win over the Washington Commanders. Cordarrelle Patterson will likely see an uptick if touches if Warren sits, but he doesn't offer great upside. Harris is going to gain the most fantasy value from Warren's absence, but fantasy managers will have to check back for another update.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (back) popped up on the Week 11 injury report due to a back injury and was unable to practice on Thursday. Mid-week injuries are usually a bad sign, so Warren's status for the Week 11 divisional tilt against the Baltimore Ravens is now firmly up in the air. It's bad timing, too, as the 26-year-old has seen a bigger role in the backfield alongside Najee Harris in recent weeks. If Warren is unable to suit up this Sunday, it will give Harris an even higher fantasy ceiling and ensure him a healthy number of touches against a Baltimore defense that has been a tough matchup for fantasy RBs in 2024. Warren being inactive would also mean a bigger role out of the backfield as a change-of-pace option for Cordarrelle Patterson. Warren's practice status on Friday may ultimately determine whether he'll be active in Week 11.
