The uptick in production is due to Rico Dowdle being out with various toe injuries. Warren is currently at his highest value and is a great trade-high candidate due to the production, running back injuries across the league, and the need for owners to move him before Dowdle returns and Pittsburgh becomes a full-blown committee again.

Dowdle's toe injuries keep him out; return will create Steelers backfield committee.

Dowdle is dealing with various toe injuries that have kept him out, allowing Jaylen Warren to see 17 carries per week. Dowdle's return (possibly this week, but probably in the next few weeks) will turn Pittsburgh's backfield into a full-blown committee, diminishing Warren's value.
