Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has ruled out running back Cordarrelle Patterson due to an ankle injury and labeled Jaylen Warren as doubtful for the upcoming game against the Raiders. With the Steelers having a Week 9 bye, there are concerns that neither player will return before then. As a result, Najee Harris is expected to see a significant workload in the backfield, despite not translating his touches into substantial fantasy points recently.
