In 2023, Warren's utilization increased significantly, recording more carries per game, more routes per game and a higher target rate. His rushing numbers improved with the larger sample size, and his receiving performance generally increased, as well.
The Steelers signed Arthur Smith to be their offensive coordinator. Smith loves running the ball and targeting running backs, which should mean significant fantasy value for the team's running backs. The downside is that he rarely had a clear lead running back in Atlanta — even when it might have been warranted — suggesting this could remain a two-man committee. Ideally, Warren could take on the Bijan Robinson role from last year while Harris takes the Tyler Allgeier role.
Warren has a lot of talent and has earned more playing time as his career has progressed. With a new offensive coordinator, there are many possibilities for his role. However, his main challenge is his poor performance on zone runs, which are a favorite of Arthur Smith.
