After a major breakout in his second season, Warren fell off significantly last year. In addition to missing two games, his touch total dipped from 210 to 158, and his yards-per-carry average went from 5.3 to 4.3. Through his time in Pittsburgh, he was never able to unseat Najee Harris in any significant way, and despite being re-signed by the Steelers this offseason, the drafting of Kaleb Williams in the 3rd round signifies that Warren will once again be relegated to committee work. If he can return to being healthy and explosive like he was in 2023, and the efficiency numbers return, then there is a direct path to fantasy relevance.
Remember though, that this offense is still designed by Arthur Smith, and while he wants to make the run game the focal point, he's willing to use three, and sometimes even four running backs to do it. Besides the drafting of Johnson, former Eagle Kenneth Gainwell was signed in the offseason, and he's a Warren clone. Arthur Smith favorite Cordarrelle Patterson still remains on the roster as well, meaning that this backfield could potentially be a mess to untangle. Despite his talent, and flashes of electricity, there just won't be the volume to support Warren as anything more than a RB3.

 Jaylen Warren Inactive for Week 4
Knee injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sun Sep 28, 8:08 am
|  | Steelers RB Jaylen Warren is INACTIVE.
Warren popped up with a knee issue earlier in the week. He came out early to warm up, but team ultimately decides to make him inactive. That’s a big loss for the backfield. Kenneth Gainwell, Kaleb Johnson and Trey Sermon have a big task (Brooke Pryor on X)
FFToday's Take: Adam Schefter reported Saturday that Warren was expected to play but the Steelers decided to play it safe with their starting running back. Gainwell moves into the low-end RB2 conversation and could we finally see some action from rookie Kaleb Johnson? He's had 2 touches for minus-1 yard to start the season.
| Jaylen Warren expected to play Week 4
Knee injury
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Sep 27, 11:09 am
| | Steelers RB Jaylen Warren, who was added to the injury report on Friday with a knee injury, is expected to play Sunday in Dublin vs. the Vikings, per league source.
But Steelers also elevated RB Trey Sermon today from their practice squad. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Late-week additions the injury report aren't great but it sounds like Warren is going to be on the field this week against the Vikings. Warren handled 23 touches last week against the Patriots and currently sits as the RB16 in half-PPR leagues. The Vikings have allowed the 10th fewest fantasy points to running backs early in the season.
