Mike Tomlin says Steelers could potentially have James Conner for Week 16.

One positive to come out of the game was the Steelers were able to run the ball a little. Tomlin said he "was impressed with the efforts of Benny Snell and what we were able to do" in the run game, according to another tweet by Batko. The Steelers get a tough game this week against the Colts. It's assumed if Conner can play he would step back into the RB1 role, but it's worth monitoring this week with Snell coming off a good game.

Pittsburgh RB James Conner, initially listed as questionable for tonight with a quad injury, is being downgraded to out against the Bengals, per source.

Snell likely will start in his place, according to Schefter. It's possible Samuels and McFarland get some work too, especially Samuels on third down and passing situations. McFarland has had 3-4 touches over the last four games while Samuels had seven touches last week against the Bills, but the Steelers did trail most of the game.

Steelers RB James Conner was limited during Friday's practice, according to the team's official injury report.

Conner has one more day to get work in prior to Monday's game against the CIncinnati Bengals.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner missed Thursday's practice session with a quad injury.

The Steelers play on Monday night, so Conner will have an extra day to recover. He will need to log at least a limited practice by Saturday in order to be cleared to play against the Cincinnati Bengals. Conner has disappointed this season but has a chance for a throwback performance if he is healthy. Benny Snell will get the nod as the starter if Conner is ultimately ruled inactive. Conner is currently our 27th ranked running back for Week 15.
