Steelers RB James Conner (ankle, questionable) took full practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 17. The full practices indicate that he’s on track to play this week. He will likely return to a lead back role but won’t necessarily see the same type of workload that he saw before the injury. Jaylen Samuels is capable of producing in a change-of-pace role.

James Conner (ankle) is practicing in full in preparation for a must-win game for the Steelers. He should be on the field come Sunday.

Fantasy Impact:

Jaylen Samuels has done an admirable job in Conner's stead, but this job is his if he is on the field. Conner figures to be an elite RB1 in a must-win game against a terrible Bengals rush defense.

Tomlin says Sean Davis (quad), Vince Williams (toe) and James Conner (ankle) are all questionable to play this week against the Bengals.

Related players: Jaylen Samuels

Fantasy Impact:

Tomlin went on to say practice participation will determine their availability this week. If Conner can't go again, Samuels would get most of the workload.

Steelers RB James Conner out for Week 16

Steelers official injury report

The Steelers have declared James Conner (ankle) out for Week 16.

Fantasy Impact:

Jaylen Samuels gets another start and should be productive as a low-end RB1. The Saints rush defense is nothing to sneeze at, though, so Samuels will have to make hay in the passing game if he is to live up to expectations.

On Wednesday, Steelers running back James Conner said, "“I’m trying. It’s day by day. These high-ankle sprains are deceiving. I can walk around fine, I’m not limping around, but when I’m out there on the field, cutting and stuff, I’m just not ready yet.”

Fantasy Impact:

Multiple reports are swirling around the stud second-year pro, and none of them are good. If you were hoping to have him this week, you need to get a plan in place and prepare as though he won't be available. Jaylen Samuels will be a borderline RB1 in his stead.
