From the episode

through two games, he has a negative 0.3 yard eight dots. They've pretty much just been using him around the line of scrimmage on little dump offs. He has 39 yards on, on nine catches this season, which is, which is less than what, what Keenan Allen has on seven receptions this season.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Warren's dump-off role and negative YAC through two games raise concerns about his usage.

Through two games, Tyler Warren has a negative 0.3 yard eight dots and has been used primarily around the line of scrimmage on dump-offs; he has 39 yards on nine catches this season, which is less than Keenan Allen's 7 receptions. The speaker notes this is a brutal role and hopes it changes, but is not convinced it will improve. Additionally, the way Warren finished last season was concerning, and there has been a schematic change under Joe Brady this year as he's launching the ball downfield on play action over the middle, where Josh Downs and Keenan Allen are being used instead of Warren.
