James Conner An RB2 In Week 3 Versus Houston
4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner showed that his ankle was healthy in Week 2 when he handled 18 touches in a win over the Denver Broncos. Conner saw the majority of the running back touches, showing that Pittsburgh intends to reinstall him as the bell-cow as long as he's healthy. Conner will face off against a shaky Houston Texans Defense in Week 3 in what is a favorable matchup for all of the Pittsburgh skill players. Houston's run defense ranks just 24th in DVOA through the first two games of the season. Treat Conner as an upside RB2 for Week 3.
