Steelers 2025 NFL draft preview: Running back
There's no doubt the Pittsburgh Steelers want to be a run-first offense. The team added offensive coordinator last offseason to facilitate that philosophy via running backs Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson. Unfortunately, the results didn't match with the hopes and now the Steelers find themselves looking to start over with many of the same pieces.
The big loss was Harris, who chose to sign a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Chargers. Let's take a look at what the Steelers have at running back now and where to go in the 2025 NFL draft.
