Jaylen Warren Nominated For NFL Award After Explosive Performance Against Lions

A pair of double-explosive touchdown runs in the fourth quarter from Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren helped bust the game wide open for the Black and Gold in Sunday’s Week 16 win over the Detroit Lions and was part of a huge day overall for the running back.

Now, he finds himself nominated for an NFL award.

Thanks to a 14-carry, 143-yard, two-touchdown performance in the 29-24 win over Detroit, Warren is nominated for the NFL’s Week 16 FedEx Air & Ground Player Of the Week.
