James Conner Scores, Reaches Century Mark
5 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner rushed for 145 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries, while also hauling three passes for five yards in Monday night’s win over Miami. This was far-and-away the best game of 2019 for the 24-year-old. He hadn’t rushed for more than 55 yards in any game thus far this year, but Week 8 was a step in the right direction. Keep in mind, Conner did have to go to the locker room late in the game due to an undisclosed injury. Granted he's good to go next week, things will get tougher against the Colts, whose rush defense has held running backs to just 16.4 fantasy points per game. He can be seen as an RB2 with some extra value in PPR formats.
