"In a somewhat surprising development, Gainwell earned the start for the Steelers' early-morning game in Dublin, Ireland, after Jaylen Warren (knee) was scratched despite putting in limited practices during the week. Gainwell thrived as the Steelers' clear go-to running back, playing 77% of the offensive snaps, handling 19 of the team's 29 rushing attempts, scoring a pair of rushing touchdowns and totaling a career-best 31.4 PPR fantasy points."
"In Sunday's upset loss to the Giants, Johnston posted his second game of 20-plus points this season (23.9), catching eight of a team-high 13 targets for 98 yards and a touchdown. Johnston has now recorded at least one touchdown grab in three of four games played this season, and he has seen a total of 23 targets in his last two."
