Nerdy Football Analysis: While this isn’t exactly getting clearance from a doctor, it’s much better than the alternative. It hasn’t been a good start to the season for Conner, but the Steelers may need to rely on him more now than ever with Ben Roethlisberger done for the year. Jaylen Samuels would get the start if Conner misses a game, but it looks like fantasy owners of Conner may have lucked out here.
