It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that Jaylen Warren has been Pittsburgh’s best running back this season. All you have to do is watch the games and see the 5-8, 215-pound former undrafted free agent maximize every carry he gets. He is the most efficient back in the game right now by leading the league with 6.2 yards per carry while ripping off big runs like the 74-yarder he broke off for a score last weekend against the Cleveland Browns.
Warren Sharp of Sharp Football Analysis took to his X account on Saturday to do a side-by-side comparison between Warren and fellow Steelers RB Najee Harris, listing both players’ yards per carry, explosive run rate, rushing success rate, and rushing attempts of both runners.
