Steelers | Najee Harris ready to roll Wed Nov 20, 01:48 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris (rest) practiced in full for the second consecutive day on Wednesday, Nov. 20, and was removed from the injury report for Week 12.
| Footballguys view: It's a short week for the Steelers as they play against the Browns on Thursday night. Harris is not 100 percent, but he was able to get out there in Week 11 and produce on 18 carries for 63 yards. We like him in the RB2/flex range as per usual. |

Steelers | Justin Fields' skills to be used Tue Nov 19, 12:38 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Justin Fields had two rushes for 17 yards in Week 11, and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith said he wanted to use Fields more, but the team stalled out on third down too often.
| Footballguys view: Smith and the Steelers unveiled their "Fields package" against the Ravens. The first three plays of the Fields package were all runs, but many of the plays are not runs at all and Fields could be a threat to throw the football at some point. "I don't view Justin as a gadget guy. We have two starting quarterbacks," Smith said. "I still view Justin as a premium starter." Smith has done this in the past when he was with the Titans. Ryan Tannehill and Marcus Mariota split time, and a 'Mariota package' was born, allowing the Titans to attack defenses in different ways. It allowed the Titans to go from one of the worst red zone teams in the NFL to one of the best quickly. The Steelers had wanted to get to the package early against the Ravens, but too many drives were stalled. It seems like it will be a staple throughout the season as Smith weaves it into the fabric of the current offense. It will be interesting to see how it impacts Russell Wilson going forward. |

Steelers | Calvin Austin catches two passes Sun Nov 10, 06:42 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR Calvin Austin caught two passes for 20 yards against the Washington Commanders in Week 10. He was targeted six times during the game.
| Footballguys view: With just under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the team watched Austin leave with an apparent head injury. Austin caught a second down pass from Russell Wilson but took a blow on the reception. Immediately, he was escorted off the field by trainers and taken to the medical tent for further observation. Austin did not return, and newly acquired receiver Mike Williams caught a touchdown with Austin sidelined. We'll follow up on Austin to see if he's placed in the concussion protocol. |

Steelers | Jaylen Warren nearly posts 100 total yards Sun Nov 10, 06:27 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren rushed for 66 yards on 14 carries against the Washington Commanders in Week 10 but did lose a fumble. He also caught two passes for 29 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Najee Harris got a little banged up late in this game, so the Steelers may have to rely on Warren even more against the Ravens next week. Warren ran with burst and strength and appears to be ready to play his best football in the second half of the season, when the Steelers will need it most against a very tough schedule, including two matchups with their Week 11 opponent, Baltimore. |
Steelers | Russell Wilson accounts for three touchdowns Sun Nov 10, 06:24 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson went 14-for-28 for 195 yards, three touchdowns and one interception against the Washington Commanders in Week 10.
| Footballguys view: Wilson was uneven against a game Commanders defense, but he came through at the most important moments, including a game-winning 32 yard bomb to Mike Williams for the game-winning score. Wilson has value in 2QB/Superflex and he might even be worth starting next week when the suspect Ravens pass defense comes to Pittsburgh. |
