BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team PPR Leagues
OWNED IN: 6% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels has been allotted a grand total of 14 touches throughout the season, with eight of them taking place in Week 10. However, what has been a nondescript rookie season for this fifth-round draft pick could change drastically if James Conner is forced to the sidelines due to injury.
Samuels has the size and versatility to perform in several positions, which could provide Mike Tomlin with sufficient motivation to incorporate him into the Steelers' offense even if Conner is healthy. That favorable combination of attributes also supplies the potential for Randy Fichtner to schematically take advantage of Samuels' hybrid capabilities with scripted plays. He is currently a roster stash, who also presents Conner owners with an excellent handcuff option. But there is potential for his value to rise substantially.
