I know Rico Dowdle had only ten touches and 21 total yards in Week 1, but he was the starter for Pittsburgh. He led the backfield with a 57.8% snap rate, a 48.8% route share, and the only red zone carry... we have a much larger one over the last two seasons that shows Dowdle is #good.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Dowdle remains the starter but his Week 1 efficiency was poor; backfield split with Warren unclear.

Dowdle was the starter for Pittsburgh in Week 1 with only ten touches and 21 total yards, leading the backfield with 57.8% snap rate, 48.8% route share, and the only red zone carry. Jaylen Warren's fumble in the first quarter may have played a role in the backfield division of labor, but the source notes a much larger sample over the last two seasons shows Dowdle is '#good.' The source will monitor the division of labor in Week 2.
