Lack Of Trust May Have Limited Jordan Todman’s Role

Last week, in the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Wildcard victory over the Bengals, the team started Fitzgerald Toussaint at running back due to injury, but they also used Jordan Todman intermittently, for about 15 snaps, or around 20 percent of the total offensive plays in the game.

More specifically, he was on the field for offensive purposes on 14 plays, and on 11 of those plays, he was given the ball as a runner—quite successfully, I might add, rushing for 65 yards on those 11 carries, including multiple runs of double-digit yardage, with a long of 25 yards.
