Last season, Jaylen Warren was the second-leading receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers, hauling in 61 passes for 370 yards on the season, serving as a dependable check-down option out of the backfield for the Steelers in the Matt Canada scheme.

Now, with new offensive coordinator Arthur Smith calling the shots, Warren — who had 107 total targets in his first two seasons — should get even more work in the passing game.

Speaking with reporters Tuesday following the fourth Organized Team Activities session at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on the South Side, Warren stated that he has a good sense that Smith likes to utilize the running backs in his offense and expects to be involved in a lot offensively.
