Jaylen Warren Leads NFL in Jaw-Dropping Stat Despite Quiet Week 6 Performance

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren continued his dominant season in Week 6. Pittsburgh Steelers running back  Jaylen Warren was a bit quiet in Week 6 after putting together dominating performances the previous three weeks. However, Warren still continued to build upon his impressive 2026 campaign with his limited opportunities. According to Pro Football Focus , Warren now has the most yards after catch per reception this season with 14.4, ahead the likes of Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (12.3), Denver Broncos running back R.J. Harvey (10.0), Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (9.9) and San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (9.8). Warren rushed for 50 yards on 14 attempts and added two more catches for 28 yards to his 2026 total in Week 6. It was a bit underwhelming after he had recorded 176, 126 and 188-yard performances the previous three weeks. But Warren still proved to be one of the best players on the field when given the opportunity. Warren’s decrease in usage could have been due to the return of fellow running back Rico Dowdle , who ran seven times for 40 yards and reeled in three catches for nine yards. However, the Steelers should continue to do everything they can to get the ball in Warren’s hands early and often, given his production compared to some of the best players around the league. An undrafted free agent in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma State, Warren has rushed for 3,092 yards and 13 touchdowns in his career.
