Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster dealing with rib injury

Ian Rapoport on Twitter

Sep 27, 2021 · 3:46 PM EDT

Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, who left Sunday’s game with a rib injury, was diagnosed with bruised ribs, sources say.

Related players: James Washington, Najee Harris, Ray-Ray McCloud

Fantasy Impact:

He’s considered day-to-day after undergoing all tests and receiving negative results, according to the rest of Rapoport's tweet. The Steelers are already short-handed at WR thanks to Diontae Johnson's knee injury, so we'll have to keep an eye on JuJu's status heading into Week 4. Washington could see a bigger role but it was Harris who collected 14 catches out of the backfield in Week 3. The Steelers travel to Green Bay for a late afternoon game against the Packers.

Steelers Beat: Harris, McFarland will be one-two punch

Mark Kaboly - The Athletic

Aug 11, 2021 · 12:05 PM EDT

In his '10 Takeaways' column, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic wrote that RBs Najee Harris and Anthony McFarland will be the team's one-two punch in the backfield. "McFarland has shown the most promise of all the competitors," Kaboly wrote. "He fits into Matt Canada’s scheme, which is a plus, and his running abilities are notably better than a year ago."

Kalen Ballage was mentioned as a similar runner as Harris.

Fantasy Impact:

Two things to take from here. 1) McFarland will have a steady role as a pass catcher and runner. 2) If Harris were to be out for any amount of time, Ballage would likely take his role.

If you are of the handcuffing persuasion, Ballage is the Harris handcuff according to Kaboly.

Steelers say RB Najee Harris needs game prep and to play

Brooke Pryor on Twitter

HC Mike Tomlin says Najee Harris needs the process of game prep and to ultimately play.

Related players: Kalen Ballage, Anthony McFarland, Benny Snell Jr.

Fantasy Impact:

Tomlin went on to say the team is going to make sure he participates in all preseason opportunities - whether game prep or actually playing in the game. It's hard to imagine Harris won't overtake the likes of Ballage, McFarland and Snell, but Harris is worth monitoring in preseason games to see how he progresses. Harris is ranked 13th on our RB list.
