| Footballguys view: Austin has a chance to be available for Thursday's contest, according to head coach Mike Tomlin. But he'll have to get in some work in the next two days to hit the field against the Bengals. More to come as the week progresses. |

Steelers | DK Metcalf flirts with triple digits Sun Oct 12, 07:06 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf posted four receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns, scoring for the fourth consecutive game.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers pass offense is as convservative as any in the league, and Metcalf is still putting up strong fantasy games thanks to Aaron Rodgers and improved offensive line play. He has to be in Week 7 lineups on Thursday against the Bengals. |

Steelers | Jaylen Warren totals 13 touches in return Sun Oct 12, 06:42 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren ran 11 times for a game-high 52 yards in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns, while adding two receptions for 11 yards on his two targets.
| Footballguys view: As expected, Warren did not return to a true lead back role after Kenneth Gainwell performed very well as the lead back while Warren sat in Week 4. Both backs are still decent flex plays with the Steelers offensive line playing better. Consider either one as a flex or even RB2 against the Bengals defense next week. |
Steelers | Aaron Rodgers throws pair of touchdowns Sun Oct 12, 06:37 PM

Free-agent DE K.J. Henry (Eagles) is being signed to the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad Friday, Oct. 10.
Link to story Steelers | Jaylen Warren cleared for Week 6 Fri Oct 10, 03:42 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and is off the team's injury report for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: Kenneth Gainwell was a workhorse when Warren had to miss Week 4, racking up three touchdowns in the team's game in Ireland. With Warren back, Gainwell should return to his typical role. Mike Tomlin has always been fair to his starters, allowing them to regain their roles upon return from injury. |
Steelers | DK Metcalf ready to go for Week 6 Fri Oct 10, 03:40 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (rest) practiced in full on Friday and is off the injury report for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: Thursday's absence from practice was nothing but preferential veteran treatment. Metcalf had a huge Week 4 before the bye, racking up a season-high 126 yards and scoring for the third straight week. The Steelers likely used the off week to find more ways to feature their newly acquired and expensive superstar. |

Steelers | Calvin Austin ruled out Fri Oct 10, 03:37 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR Calvin Austin (shoulder) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: Austin left Week 4's game with a shoulder injury. The specifics of the injury haven't been made public. Even before the bye, though, Austin mentioned the possibility of missing some games. He'll try again next week. In his absence, Roman Wilson or Scotty Miller should get an opportunity. Given Arthur Smith's tendencies, expect to also see some 13 and 22 personnel, keeping DK Metcalf on the field as the lone receiver. |

Steelers | Jaylen Waren takes part in practice Thu Oct 9, 03:55 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) fully participated in practice Thursday, Oct. 9.
| Footballguys view: With a bye in Week 5, Warren was able to get some extra time to rest after missing Week 4's game. Now, he's set to return to the field for the Steelers against the Browns in Week 6. However, the backfield duties should be split between Warren and Kenneth Gainwell going forward. Both are flex options until we get more data points on how they'll be used together. |

Steelers | Jaylen Warren practices in full Wed Oct 8, 03:47 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) practiced in full on Wednesday, Oct. 8.
| Footballguys view: Warren should be back out there for the Steelers in Week 6, but upon his return, we may see an RBBC with Kenneth Gainwell. A bye week helped him get healthy, and Fantasy GMs should consider Warren a deep flex play in his first week back. |

Steelers | Tomlin: Arrow Pointing Up For Jaylen Warren, Others Tue Oct 7, 03:03 PM
The Steelers could be getting several players back from injuries as they return to action after a Week 5 bye. Head coach Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday that the "arrow is pointing up" for linebacker Alex Highsmith, cornerback Joey Porter Jr., and running back Jaylen Warren. "We'll follow them throughout the week to make sure it continues to move in the appropriate direction," Tomlin said, via Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "The same things could be said for Warren. He missed the last game, but he looked really good yesterday."
| Footballguys view: Highsmith has missed two games with an ankle injury, Porter has missed three with a hamstring injury, and Warren missed Week 4 with a knee injury. As previously noted, Warren was on the practice field Monday. The team will release its official injury report on Wednesday, but Tomlin said that wide receiver Calvin Austin (shoulder) and cornerback Jalen Ramsey (hamstring) could be "limited at the front part of the week," but the hope is that both can play against the Browns. |
Steelers | Jaylen Warren on field Monday Tue Oct 7, 01:06 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) participated in practice Monday, Oct. 6.
| Footballguys view: Warren missed the Steelers' Week 4 game against the Vikings in Ireland and had the Week 5 bye to recover. Pittsburgh isn't required to release an official practice report until Wednesday. Still, as CBSSports.com suggested, Warren's presence on the field Monday would indicate he's closing in on being 100 percent and returning to game action ahead of Sunday's date with the Browns. |

Link to story Steelers | Kaleb Johnson to grow into role? Thu Oct 2, 09:59 AM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Kaleb Johnson is expected to contribute before the season's end, team sources told Dan Graziano of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: The Steelers have a Week 5 bye, so perhaps Jaylen Warren's knee is going to feel better. He missed Week 4 and it was Kenneth Gainwell leading the way for the Steelers. Johnson is a hammer when running the ball, and seemingly a good fit for the Steelers offense. However, he's not yet done what he needs to do in order to have any sort of role let alone a larger role. |

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Trey Sermon reverted back to the practice squad Monday, Sept. 29, after being on the active roster for Week 4.

Steelers | WR Calvin Austin III Addresses Injury Mon Sep 29, 02:47 PM
Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III was injured early in the fourth quarter of the Steelers' 24-21 victory Sunday over the Vikings in Ireland. Austin was ruled out with a shoulder injury and taken to a Dublin hospital to have his arm examined. But the third-year receiver did try to calm concerns on social media. "Great Dub in Dublin! I'm all good Steelers Nation, appreciate the messages and concern!"
| Footballguys view: According to SteelersNow.com, unlike most NFL stadiums, Croke Park does not have in-stadium X-ray capacity. That may explain the need for the hospital trip. A quick return would be a plus for a team without much depth at the position. On the upside, Pittsburgh does have a bye this week before facing Cleveland at home in Week 6. We'll be watching for more. |
Steelers | Calvin Austin III Checked At Dublin Hospital; No Further Updates Available Sun Sep 28, 08:15 PM
Wide receiver Calvin Austin III was injured early in the fourth quarter of the Pittsburgh Steelers' 24-21 victory Sunday after catching an 8-yard pass from Aaron Rodgers. Austin was taken to a Dublin hospital to have his shoulder examined. He had two catches for 13 yards and returned a pair of punts for nine yards.
| Footballguys view: Coach Mike Tomlin had no updates after the game, telling reporters, "I think he's at the hospital being evaluated." The Steelers will be off next week, before returning to action in Week 6, at home against the Browns. Tomlin said he will give his players off Monday following the long flight back from Ireland. Players get a mandatory four-day weekend break, which leaves just two days of practice. We'll be watching for more on Austin in coming days. Beyond DK Metcalf and Austin, Scotty Miller and Ben Skowronek, with one each, were the only other wideouts targeted in this game. |

Steelers | DK Metcalf has long TD in Dublin Sun Sep 28, 01:02 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf posted five receptions for 126 yards on five targets in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings in Dublin, highlighted by an 80-yard first-half touchdown.
| Footballguys view: Metcalf took a slant to the house from 80 yards to give fantasy teams a huge boost from across the pond. He wasn't a lineup liability in the first three weeks, but this was the first time Metcalf actually helped fantasy teams win. His value is trending up going into the bye even though the Steelers pass offense is one of the most conservative in the league. |

Steelers | Kaleb Johnson takes backseat in Week 4 Sun Sep 28, 12:59 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers RB Kaleb Johnson ran six times for 22 yards in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings, and he didn't have a catch on just a single target.
| Footballguys view: Johnson didn't do anything to get out of the doghouse with Jaylen Warren a game-time scratch. He's still not worth rostering in redraft leagues going into his bye. |
