The Steelers will embark on St. Vincent College in Latrobe, Pa. next month to begin yet another training camp. Like many other folks, I have a list of things I’m looking for.
Below is that list:
1. Will third-year man James Conner be the workhorse again at running back, or, in a departure from their old philosophy and approach, will the coaches noticeably lighten his load?
And if Conner’s workload is lightened, what percentage of the carries will he now get? I honestly believe the Steelers have such a good offensive line, just about any player the team employs in the backfield among its current stable that includes Jaylen Samuels, Benny Snell and Conner will be productive.
