Pittsburgh Steelers RB Rico Dowdle carried seven times for 40 yards and caught three of four targets for nine yards in a Week 6 overtime win over the Tampa Bay Bucs.
Why It Matters: Dowdle returned after missing the last three games with a toe injury and was given 10 touches to Jaylen Warren’s 16. Warren remains the back to own in fantasy of the two right now, but Dowdle was clearly the better runner in this one. Either way, Dowdle is a RB3/flex option at best until his timeshare with Warren works itself out.
