From the episode

Rico Dowdle with the early down and goal line work, and then Jalen Warren with a third down and receptions...I think it'll work out with Rico being the early down back.
Mentioned at 46:47 – 47:20

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Dowdle projected as early-down and goal-line back in Pittsburgh split.

The source projects Rico Dowdle as the early-down and goal-line back in Pittsburgh's backfield split with Jalen Warren; this role assignment is the source's lead recommendation for the Pittsburgh running back situation, though the source notes that overall receptions to the running back position will likely decline due to improved receiver options (Michael Pittman, Jeremy Bernard) reducing Aaron Rodgers' checkdown dependency.
