Things have not gone according to plan this season for the Steelers. Against the Browns, Pittsburgh struggled in the passing game and protecting quarterback Mason Rudolph. However, perhaps the most significant concern on offense right now is the Steelers’ inability to run the football.
James Conner and Benny Snell have struggled to get on the football field due to injuries, and players like Trey Edmunds, Jaylen Samuels, and Tony Brooks-James were just not getting the job done.
Brooks-James was recently cut to make room for Kerrith Whyte – another player who has yet to see NFL action prior to his arrival in Pittsburgh.
