Backfield Including Jaylen Warren ‘Continuing To Shape Itself And Improve’, Tomlin Says

Considering Pittsburgh Steelers don’t have the answers to questions about what their offensive identity is, it’s fair to assume that they don’t really have one established right now. Whatever it ends up being, assuming that one eventually comes to fruition, an emphasis on being successful running the ball is going to have to be a part of it.

And part of establishing that successful running game has been the discovering and continuing development of Jaylen Warren, the rookie college free agent, as the number two, complementary back to Najee Harris.

I think you saw some of that on Thursday night”, head coach Mike Tomlin told reporters yesterday during his pre-game press conference, via the team’s website, about Warren beginning to take on that complementary role.
