Steelers' Jaylen Samuels 'arrow pointing up'

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels' arrow is "continually pointing up," head coach Mike Tomlin said.

What It Means:

Samuels picked up 29 yards and a touchdown on 8 touches last Thursday in a game James Conner (concussion) left early. Conner is expected to play in Week 11 versus the Jacksonville Jaguars, so Samuels will likely remain in a limited role.

The fifth-round pick has 10 carries for 26 yards and 3 catches (4 targets) for 22 yards and 1 touchdown in seven games this season, although he has only appeared in the box score three times.
