The Pittsburgh Steelers running backs led the NFL in a surprising category last season.
PITTSBURGH -- There is no denying how important the running game is to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Over the past few seasons, the passing game faltered repeatedly, putting immense pressure on the running game. Their ground game responded the best way it could, running for over 2,000 yards as a team. If they will have any team success in 2024, they will be relying on Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren to be significant impact players again.
NFL insider Dov. Kleiman shared a series of team statistics via his X account. One of the statistics he highlighted was a look at broken tackles by running backs. Breaking it down by team, the Steelers registered the most by a wide margin.The Steelers RBs broke 59 tackles during the 2023 season. The next best marker was the rival Baltimore Ravens with 46.
