The Pittsburgh Steelers running backs room has been a walking injury room this year with James Conner, Jaylen Samuels, and Benny Snell all missing time over the season. With Conner and Snell both out against the Colts, it gave an opportunity for Trey Edmunds, who had been on the practice squad, not even a month before the game, an opportunity to shine and stand out against the Colts. And stand out he did.
Edmunds stepped in well for Snell and Conner and brought some significant juice to the running game to aid Samuels in his first game back from knee surgery.
