News about Jaylen Warren

The Pittsburgh Steelers have two NFL starting caliber quarterbacks in their system. Seeing as they can't both play, one team assistant coach came up with an outside-the-box idea. On an episode of Cam Heyward's 'Not Just Football' podcast, running back Jaylen Warren said that special teams coordinator Danny Smith came up with a wild solution for Justin Fields: having him return kickoffs. 'I think it's pretty good,' Warren told Heyward when asked about the new kickoff rules the NFL is enforcing for this season. 'As soon as you touch the ball, that's when everything starts to happen.

Running back Jaylen Warren of the Pittsburgh Steelers has reportedly asked why teammate George Pickens decided not to block against the Indianapolis Colts, insisting he had done it for himself. Warren had broken free and was headed straight for the end zone when - instead of blocking the defender in front of him - Pickens stood still and waved his arm at Colt cornerback Jaylon Jones, who had gone viral. Pickens told reporters later that he didn't block for his teammate because he didn't want to get a bruise.'

After being chastised for apparently making no attempt to save the possession, Diontae Johnson maintains he didn't see the fumble that landed right in front of him during the Steelers' victory over the Bengals on Sunday. In the first quarter of Pittsburgh's game against Cincinnati, the Pittsburgh wide receiver fumbled the ball late. If running back Jaylen Warren was bumped into a wall of orange jerseys after attempting a running play, Johnson simply watched as the ball struck the ground and turned around as if the game was over.

Johnson made no attempt to retrieve the possession after his team fumbled the ball steps away from where he stood. When running back Jaylen Warren attempted a running play, the Steelers were within 20 feet of their own 20. Warren fumbled as the Bengals packed the pigskin after bumping into a wall of orange jerseys. As Cincinnati's DJ Turner II recovered the ball and ran forward, the rest of the Steelers were quick to react. However, Johnson, who was right in front of the play, watched as the ball hit the turf and spun around as if the game was over.

According to JJ Watt, the NFL is more geared toward flag football than the hard-hitting spectacle that has existed for decades. The long-serving Houston Texan expressed his thoughts about how the league's decisions placed itself in a position of pigskin purgatory. The flag football discussions have erupted, and now we're getting it in the Olympics, which is fantastic.' Flag football is a great sport. On Wednesday's episode of The Pat McAfee Show, Watt said, 'We're actually headed in the direction as a league.'

Despite not being fined during the game, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was fined $48,333 for unlawful use of his helmet during their Week 2 victory over the Cleveland Browns. Warren took a short nap on third-and-3 before lowering his helmet as Browns safety Juan Thornhill approached him to make the tackle. The two players collided helmet-to-helmet after Thornhill also dropped his head before they both collapsed to the ground out of bounds.
