Should You Start or Sit Jaylen Warren on Wild Card Weekend?
There are two teams on this slate that I want as little exposure to as possible, and the Steelers are the AFC’s representative on that list (the Packers from the NFC).
That said, if I’m going to flirt with someone on this roster, it’s Jaylen Warren. He’s caught all nine of his targets against the Ravens this season, carrying the ball 21 times for 89 yards. He produced over expectations in both contests, but it’s not the production that has me moderately sold, it’s how I see this game playing out.
Warren vs. Ravens, 2024:
- Week 11 win: 33.8% snap share
- Week 16 loss: 66.7% snap share
If you’re like me and most of the country and believe that Baltimore dictates just about everything in this game, Warren is the piece that stands to gain the most, tough I’m still not regularly clicking his name when building out Wild Card DFS lineups.
