Efficient as rusher

Smith failed to secure his lone target while gaining 28 rushing yards on two carries during Sunday's 29-24 win over the Lions.

Smith scored a rushing touchdown during last week's win over the Dolphins, before recording a pair of fourth-quarter carries in Week 16. He began the Steelers' final drive of the game with a 20-yard run before rushing for eight yards two plays later. Despite Smith's recent increase in work out of the backfield, his fantasy upside remains limited as Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell remain entrenched as the team's top running backs, while Darnell Washington and Pat Freiermuth see more consistent target volume at tight end.
