James Conner runs for 109 yards, scores game-winning touchdown for Steelers

Two weeks ago, Pitt alum James Conner appeared to be losing his grip on his starting role with the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, he reasserted himself as the team’s top running back with a 100-yard game last week and repeated the feat on Sunday. He also scored the game-winning touchdown in the Steelers' 28-21 win over the Houston Texans.
