Benny Snell Jr. A Low-End RB2 If James Conner Sits
4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. came through with a big game for his team in Week 15, posting 107 all-purpose yards and a touchdown. Snell got the chance to start with James Conner ruled out before the game with a quad issue. If Conner doesn't play against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 16, Snell would get another start for a struggling Pittsburgh offense. Indianapolis represents a tough matchup for the Pittsburgh backfield, ranking 11th in run-defense DVOA and allowing the 13th-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs. Treat Snell as a low-end RB2/high-end RB3 in Week 16 if he starts.
