Jaylen Warren Week 8 Outlook - Giants at Steelers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 24th 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Last week, Warren played 51% of the snaps and finished with 14 touches and 59 total yards. While he didn't have any explosive runs and only generated 1.92 yards after contact per attempt, he did have a 17% missed tackle rate, which is encouraging. He hasn't looked like the same player in 2024 that captivated us in previous seasons. That's to be expected with all of the injuries he has dealt with this season, but we could finally be getting closer to seeing the "real Jaylen Warren" soon. Warren is a strong flex play this week. New York has allowed the eighth-most rushing yards per game, the fourth-highest explosive run rate, and the second-highest missed tackle rate.
