Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner is dealing with a shoulder injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, meaning that Jaylen Samuels and Trey Edmunds are next in line on the depth chart.
And fantasy football players are likely questioning which back has the higher upside in his stead. Let's break it down.
One good way to analyze this situation would be to look back at Week 9 when Conner also missed time. Here's what that looked like.
- Samuels: Eight carries for 10 yards; 13 receptions for 73 yards.
- Trey Edmunds: 12 carries for 73 yards.
