Kenneth Gainwell Has Outside Chance To Join Quirky Steelers Club

Offseason boredom and my discussion with Ross McCorkle on this week’s Depot Dive got me thinking about RB Kenneth Gainwell. His role in the offense isn’t fully fleshed out, but he’s a versatile player and capable receiver. That much was proven against the Pittsburgh Steelers a year ago, catching three passes – all first downs – for 40 yards in a convincing win while a member of the Philadelphia Eagles.

With that in mind, could Gainwell catch more passes than he will carry the ball? Jaylen Warren and rookie Kaleb Johnson should handle the load as runners.
