Omar Khan, Steelers, Should Prioritize Backup RB Next in Free Agency

Steelers Now reporter Chris Carter digs deep on the Pittsburgh Steelers and the NFL Monday through Friday all year long on Locked on Steelers.

The Pittsburgh Steelers made a good free agency move to add Larry Ogunjobi, but backup running back is another position they must address. Najee Harris shouldn’t take as big a load of touches in 2022 as he did in 2021, and if Benny Snell isn’t ready, Mike Tomlin and Omar Khan need to have options to spell their star RB. Jordan Howard, Wayne Gallman and Justin Jackson are all candidates, but who’s the best option?

Also, former NFL tight end Dorin Dickerson weighs in on whether Rob Gronkowski is the GOAT tight end, and how he sees the Steelers offense working in 2022. Hint: Dorin sees tight ends being a big part of the future, and explains why he thinks Pat Freiermuth will become a top 5 NFL TE before the season is over.
