If you listened to my Thursday Terrible Take, you already have an idea of what I’m writing about today. If there’s anyone who should be thankful for Monday night’s game against the Indianapolis Colts, it might be RB Anthony McFarland. Rookie RB Jaylen Warren is dealing with a hamstring injury and looks unlikely to play in Week 12’s game. And that could open the door for McFarland to have one last chance of proving what he can offer a roster.
Assuming Warren doesn’t play, the Steelers will need a third running back on the roster. They’re not going to go into a game with just two, that being Najee Harris and Benny Snell, so an elevation makes the most amount of sense.
