Summary

Running Back Rank: #118All Players: #518

Rainey got a little work his rookie season, rushing 26 times 102 yard and caught 14 passes. The bad news is the Steelers had a lot of injuries at running back last season but Rainey didn't get a whole lot of chances. This doesn't bode too well for his future with the team. He has the makeup to be a solid third-down back, though. He is a small back with track speed and solid hands. He can make a big play in a hurry because of his elite speed and moves. He struggles running inside, though, and isn't much of a blocker because of his size. He'll get plenty of work on passing downs but likely doesn't have the size and strength to be an every-down back in the NFL.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Rainey could get a few more chances in the passing game this season but don't expect a huge surge in stats. He could get around 25 receptions and 350 total yards. Rainey doesn't bring much fantasy value to the table.
