It was a quiet, under-the-radar move this offseason, but it could be one that draws a great deal of attention during training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe.
That would be the addition of veteran running back Kenneth Gainwell on a one-year deal, the Pittsburgh Steelers teaming him with Jaylen Warren and rookie Kaleb Johnson in the backfield under offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.
Given assistant GM Andy Weidl’s familiarity with Gainwell from their time together in Philadelphia it made sense why the Steelers added the experienced running back. But Steelers beat writer Brian Batko, during an appearance on the Post-Gazette’s North Shore Drive podcast, believes Gainwell will be one of the camp standouts.
