Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren showed flashes of his potential as an undrafted rookie in 2022. He only carried the ball 77 times, but he averaged 4.9 yards per carry while also catching 28 passes at 7.6 yards per reception. In 2023, he almost doubled his number of carries to 149 yet still increased his yards per carry to 5.3. He also jumped from one rushing touchdown as a rookie to four. His performance led Pro Football Focus to grade him as the 13th-best running back of the 2023 season.
“Warren built on a solid rookie season with the Steelers in 2022 by producing a 2023 campaign in which he handled a larger workload and increased his efficiency,” Gordon McGuiness wrote.
