One running back in Najee Harris could be out the door in free agency for the Pittsburgh Steelers, but backup running back Jaylen Warren seemingly isn’t going anywhere.
According to Steelers’ GM Omar Khan, who spoke to reporters Tuesday from the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, there’s confidence that the Steelers will tender Warren, ensuring he’s in Pittsburgh for the 2025 season.
“I’m confident we’re gonna tender him and be in a position where Jaylen’s gonna be here,” Khan said of Warren, who is a restricted free agent.
Warren is coming off of a season in which he rushed for 511 yards and a touchdown on 120 carries, adding another 38 receptions for 310 yards in the process, serving as one of the few play-making options the Steelers had offensively, especially late in the season.
