The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to make appearances on the NFL Top 100 Countdown for 2019, as James Conner was voted as the 62nd best player. As someone who wasn't expecting a large role entering last season, Conner seized his opportunity as he bulldozed his way to 973 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns, while also adding on 55 receptions for 497 yards, and an additional score through the air (13 games total). Given this was only Conner's second season, the future looks bright as he should continue to vault his way up this list and continue to be a focal point for the Steelers. It wouldn't be a surprise at all if Conner ranked in the top 50 next season, as he will be given every opportunity to earn it.
