Is Kaleb Johnson ready to be in the Steelers’ running back rotation?
After weeks of struggles, rookie RB Kaleb Johnson showed signs of life last Sunday, but do opportunities await after the bye week? Perhaps the only reason he played against the Vikings is because Jaylen Warren did not, and Warren should be fine by Week 6. But the Steelers didn’t draft him so he can learn as a rookie—after all, they put him on kick returns.
After his Week 3 benching, Johnson did find some redemption in Dublin. Although there is still room to grow, he had some positive runs.
