#27 Jonathan Dwyer   Pos: Running Back NFL Team: PIT Injury: On IR Injury Type: foot Experience: 2 College: Georgia Tech Height: 71 Weight: 229 Born: 7/26/1989  Year   Tm   Gm   Rush   Yds   TDs   Fum   Catch   Yds   TDs   Tgt  2010 PIT 1 9 28 0 0 0 0 0 0 SUMMARY Running Back Rank: #89    Overall: #411 Dwyer was active just one game his rookie season, playing the last game of the year. He rushed nine times for 28 yards. Dwyer can work his way up the depth chart but is pretty far down at the moment. He could be the No. 3 back in 2011 if all goes well. Dwyer is a big back, but has good speed and cutback ability. Dwyer also is tough to bring down once he has the ball in his hands. He has battled weight issues, so he'll need to stay in shape to have a role with the team. FANTASY OUTLOOK Dwyer has some upside, but he'll need to get some playing time before he is worth using for fantasy teams. He might be worth a late-round flier in deeper leagues, but using a draft pick on him probably isn't a good idea just yet. Dwyer needs to have some things break his way to crack the lineup. 2011-10-15 13:23:11 Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jonathan Dwyer will be the emergency running back for Week 6 because of the return of RB Rashard Mendenhall. Fantasy Impact: Dwyer has a 100-yard game last week and now likely won't see the field Week 6.

Fantasy Impact: He got his first carries of the season and made some things happen. He could get more chances going forward. Source: KFFL.com 2011-09-03 16:33:11 Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jonathan Dwyer has trimmed down and appears to be in the best shape of his short career, which is a good sign after he showed up to the start of training camp almost up 20 pounds from last year. He likely sealed a roster spot during the preseason, and appears to be the team's fourth running back. Dwyer said he is constantly trying to prove himself.

Source: KFFL.com 2010-09-03 01:13:03 Pittsburgh Steelers rookie RB Jonathan Dwyer rushed 20 times for 86 yards against the Carolina Panthers in the team's preseason finale Thursday, Sept. 2. Fantasy Impact: Dwyer has done a pretty good job this preseason. He probably didn't beat out Mewelde Moore for the backup job but is close.

Head coach Mike Tomlin and running backs coach Kirby Wilson were not happy with Dwyer's performance during practice Friday, Aug. 6, and made him participate in certain drills several times because of his performance. Fantasy Impact: Looks like Dwyer might have a long way to go to move up the depth chart this season.

Fantasy Impact: Dwyer would seem to have the upperhand, but nothing is certain at this point. Source: KFFL.com
