Jaylen Warren's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was quiet in last week's loss but will look to get back on track in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. Although the Ravens have been stout against the run this season, they surrender plenty of catches and receiving yards to the running back position. When Warren last faced Baltimore in Week 11, he hauled in all four of his targets and posted 68 total yards. With George Pickens (hamstring) already ruled out for Saturday's contest, expect the Steelers to lean on the running game and get Warren involved as a pass-catcher, especially if Pittsburgh falls behind on the scoreboard. Fantasy managers can consider Warren as a flex option in half-and-full-PPR leagues this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned four carries into 12 yards and two targets into one catch for three yards in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Pittsburgh was never able to establish the run in this one and could not sustain drives, especially in the second half. Warren has just one top-20 fantasy showing this season and continues to serve as a change-of-pace back with Najee Harris operating ahead of him. He is only worth rostering in deeper formats and should not be considered in starting lineups heading into a Week 16 meeting with the Baltimore Ravens.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has gained at least 60 total yards in five straight contests and should continue to serve as a complement to Najee Harris against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Warren's utilization has been somewhat inconsistent as of late but he has been effective when given opportunities. Although the Eagles are stingy against the run, Philadelphia gives up plenty of receptions to opposing backs. With George Pickens (hamstring) inactive in Week 14, Warren led all Steelers with five targets. Pickens has already been ruled out this week, once again opening the door for Warren to contribute through the air. He is not a recommended starting option in standard redraft formats but Warren can be deployed as an RB3 with flex appeal in PPR leagues.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned nine carries into 47 yards and two receptions into 25 yards in a Week 14 victory over the Cleveland Browns. Although he only managed to catch two passes, Warren saw a season-high five targets on Sunday while backfield mate Najee Harris was not utilized in the passing game. Warren's role as a complementary back has been relatively steady as of late, giving him a floor for fantasy purposes in PPR formats. However, he has just one touchdown on the season as Harris has been the preferred option near the goal line. While his matchup next week against the Philadelphia Eagles is a difficult one, it should be noted that the Eagles have allowed a fair amount of production through the air to running backs, giving Warren some flex appeal.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren had his most prolific showing of the season against the Cleveland Browns in Week 12 and will hope to find similar success in a second meeting with his division rival on Sunday. Warren was outshined by Najee Harris last week but still managed to contribute as a pass-catcher out of the backfield with 55 receiving yards. Although his opportunities on the ground have not been consistent, he has earned four targets in three straight games. Because of this, he can be started as a flex option in PPR formats, but can't be trusted in standard leagues against a difficult Browns run defense.
