News: 3 days agoHeidenreich (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals.
Spin: It looked like the rookie seventh-rounder was in line for a slightly larger role Sunday after Rico Dowdle (toe) was ruled out. However, Heidenreich will be a healthy scratch for the first time this season, with Travis Homer and Lew Nichols providing depth in the backfield for Jaylen Warren while fellow rookie Kaden Wetjen operates as the primary returner on kickoffs. Heidenreich's next chance to play is Thursday against the Browns.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Heidenreich was selected by the Steelers in the seventh round of April's draft. Heidenreich is an intriguing prospect, as he's a tweener who could play running back or receiver in the pros. The Navy product never cleared 77 carries in a single season, but did post a 51-941-6 receiving line in 2025. For his career, he averaged 6.85 yards per carry and evaded one tackle for every 5.9 touches, both of which are best in this RB rookie class. He'll likely max out as a gadget player behind Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle.
