James Conner (ankle) could play for Steelers without practice

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner could (ankle) play Week 15 versus the New England Patriots without practicing, offensive coordinator Randy Fichtner said Thursday.

What It Means:

"He's played a lot," Fichtner emphasized. Conner has missed both practices to start the work week, making it unlikely he suits up for Sunday's matchup, but this could wind up being a game-time call. Jaylen Samuels started last week and logged 18 touches.

Taking the injury into account, numberFire's models project Conner for 11.1 touches and 10.3 FanDuel points at a cost of $8,300 on Thursday.
