Lead-back workload opportunity + shoulder injury + limited all week + Rico Dowdle ruled out + clear Week 3 game-day resolution
The Steelers could be one injury away from a serious running back problem. Jaylen Warren is questionable for tomorrow's AFC North matchup against Cincinnati, and Pittsburgh has already lost another major piece of its backfield. Warren is dealing with a shoulder injury suffered in Week 2 and was limited in practice throughout the week. Pittsburgh officially listed Warren as questionable for Sunday. Rico Dowdle has already been ruled out with a toe injury. If Warren gets cleared, he could be asked to carry a much bigger workload. If he cannot go, Pittsburgh's depth gets tested immediately.
