Rico Dowdle Making Progress in Recovery From Right Toe Injury

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike McCarthy stated that running back Rico Dowdle is making progress in his recovery from a right toe injury following a positive workout on Friday. His status for Week 5 against the Colts remains uncertain. Dowdle has missed the last two games, allowing Jaylen Warren to dominate backfield touches. McCarthy indicated Dowdle will return to a one-two punch role with Warren once fully healthy, aiming to improve upon his early-season average.
