It's a big season for James Conner for a number of reasons.
First, he wants to put what became a season to forget behind him after missing most of the second half of 2019 with injuries.
Second, he wants to put together a strong 2020 campaign as he plays out the final season of his rookie contract.
Finally, he wants to show that the Steelers' faith in him as their lead running back wasn't misguided.
Make no mistake, if Conner takes care of that third part, the rest will handle itself.
Throughout the offseason, from Mike Tomlin to GM Kevin Colbert, the Steelers' front office and coaching staff made it known that they believed in Conner, a Pro Bowl performer in 2018.
