Jaylen Warren Has Flex Appeal In Week 16

Jaylen Warren Has Flex Appeal In Week 16

11 months ago

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is set to face the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 16 after posting fewer than 10 half-PPR fantasy points in four consecutive games. Warren was shut down by Cincinnati in Week 12 while Najee Harris managed his best showing of the season. Although Harris typically runs ahead of Warren, the latter did play on more snaps last week with Harris losing a fumble in the third quarter. There is little evidence to suggest that Warren will lead Pittsburgh's backfield moving forward, but at worst, the split should remain fairly even. While it is difficult to project the Steelers for much success on Saturday with Mason Rudolph starting at quarterback, Warren's consistent utilization in the passing game keeps him on the fantasy radar as a flex option.
