Records seven touches in victory Patterson rushed four times for 33 yards while securing three of five targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chargers.

Impact Patterson was on the field for 34 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps Sunday, which was tied with fellow backup running back Jaylen Warren. However, Patterson saw more work than Warren and was efficient with his seven touches. Patterson totaled just 16 rushing yards over the first two weeks of the regular season, but it was encouraging to see him more involved against the Chargers.

Rushes twice in Week 2 Patterson rushed twice for three yards during Sunday's 13-6 win over the Broncos.

Impact Patterson played just four offensive snaps during Sunday's victory, down from when he was on the field for nine offensive snaps during last week's regular-season opener. Despite his limited playing time, he's seen multiple carries in each of the first two games of the season. However, Patterson is unlikely to be very relevant in most fantasy formats as long as Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren are healthy.

Two carries in Week 2 Patterson carried the ball twice for three yards during Sunday's 13-6 win over the Broncos.

Impact Patterson played just four offensive snaps, down from the nine he saw during the season opener. Despite his limited playing time, he's seen multiple carries in each of the first two games of the season. However, Patterson is unlikely to be relevant in most fantasy formats as long as Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren are healthy.

Tallies four carries in victory Patterson rushed four times for 13 yards during Sunday's 18-10 win over the Falcons.

Impact Patterson was on the field for just nine offensive snaps during Sunday's Week 1 matchup, but he saw ample work when on the field and ultimately had more carries than fellow reserve running back Jaylen Warren. However, it seems likely that Patterson will remain the No. 3 option at running back since Warren was on the field for 21 offensive snaps. Patterson is also in line to serve as the Steelers' top kick returner in 2024.

Long touchdown to close preseason Patterson rushed the ball three times for 31 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 31-24 preseason loss to the Lions.

Impact With Jaylen Warren (hamstring) sidelined, Patterson was the second back on the field behind Najee Harris. Patterson played with both Russell Wilson and Justin Fields, but his highlight of the game came on the team's first drive when he ripped through the middle of the field for a 31-yard touchdown scamper. Warren looks likely to be ready for Week 1, but Patterson would likely get passing-down work and some occasional carries if Warren is unable to suit up. .

Activated after physical pass Patterson was activated by the Steelers on Friday as he passed his physical, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Impact Patterson was placed on the reserve/non-football back in late July, but the passing of a physical was enough for him to now get activated. The veteran running back and return specialist will likely see the bulk of his opportunities this season as the Steelers' kick returner, as he sits behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren in the backfield depth chart.

Dealing with hamstring issue The Steelers placed Patterson (hamstring) on the reserve/non-football injury list Wednesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Patterson was evidently injured while away from the team, hence his placement on NFI. He can be activated at any time during training camp. Patterson signed a two-year deal with the Steelers in the offseason, giving Pittsburgh an experienced return man and backfield depth behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren.

Takes talents to Pittsburgh The Steelers and Patterson agreed to terms on a two-year, $6 million contract Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact With this move to Pittsburgh, Patterson reunites with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, with whom he worked under the past three seasons in Atlanta. Patterson reeled off 1,313 rushing yards, 670 receiving yards and 19 total touchdowns in 29 games between 2021 and 2022, but he fell off almost completely working behind Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier in the most recent campaign (219 yards from scrimmage, one TD in 14 contests). Upon joining the Steelers, Patterson will be in a similar spot as the No. 3 RB behind Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren, but the 33-year-old's ability as a kick returner likely will be where he makes his mark with his new squad.

Nine touches in double-digit win Patterson rushed seven times for 26 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards during Sunday's 29-10 win over the Colts.

Impact Patterson's nine touches were his second-highest mark of the season, and the only time he reached double figures was because of Bijan Robinson's lack of availability due to an illness. Patterson's offensive role has increased slightly over the last couple of weeks, but he's still not worth a look in standard leagues as long as Robinson and Tyler Allgeier are available.

Small part of offense Patterson rushed five times for 11 yards and caught one of two targets for six yards during Sunday's 13-8 win over the Jets.

Impact Five of Patterson's six touches came in the first half, and his lone second-half touch went for negative-one yard. The veteran fumbled his final touch of the first half out of bounds, so his lack of ball security may have played a part in his limited role down the stretch. Either way, Patterson's fantasy value remains limited as long as Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier are healthy.
