The Pittsburgh Steelers are on the lookout for a number three running back this year. They had four running backs on the roster in 2021, and have brought three back, yet at least one of them is going to have to earn his spot, this time around.
That would be third-year former fourth-round draft pick Anthony McFarland, who hardly played at all last season. While the Maryland product did begin the season on the Reserve/Injured List after suffering a knee injury that required surgery, even when he did return to the 53-man roster, it was hard for him to get a helmet.
