A few new names, including running back Jaylen Warren, popped up on Pittsburgh Steelers injury report on Thursday that could impact their critical brawl with the Baltimore Ravens.
Warren, 26, is coming off his best game of the year in Pittsburgh’s win over the Washington Commanders with 14 carries for 66 yards and a pair of receptions for 29 yards. Unfortunately, he had what was a tone-changing fumble at the goal line.
A knee injury sidelined Warren for two games earlier this season. We’ll see if he can practice tomorrow; otherwise, his status for the critical brawl with Baltimore will be in jeopardy.
Jaylen Warren injury update
Warren was a full participant on Wednesday, so his addition is something to monitor. Najee Harris (ankle), who did not practice on Wednesday, returned to full participation on Thursday.
How long will Jaylen Warren be out?
Back injuries are no joke and, depending on severity, could be a concern. Given the injury is new, no official information is available on how long Warren could be out.
Steelers running back depth chart
Warren is second on Pittsburgh’s depth chart, and should he be sidelined, those duties would fall to Cordarrelle Patterson. The Steelers will likely elevate one of two practice squad backs, Aaron Shampklin or Jonathan Ward.
