From the episode
Rico Dowdle has operated as a three down back under Mike McCarthy...he can handle checkdowns. But Warren is considerably better on that end, like by far over Rico Dowdle...Vegas odds, they're projecting that Rico Dowdle has the more rushing yards over Jalen Warren.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalRole
Dowdle's McCarthy connection and three-down upside position him as early-down and goal-line option.
Dowdle brings a fresh perspective to Pittsburgh with new coach Mike McCarthy, who has a previous connection with him from Dallas. The source projects Dowdle as a potential three-down back operating early down and goal line work, though he is not the best pass protector. He has operated as a three-down back under McCarthy in the past and can handle checkdowns. Ranked RB31 in consensus rankings, a round behind Jalen Warren (RB27), with Vegas projecting him to have more rushing yards than Warren.
