1. Trey Edmunds, RB

Trey Edmunds, the brother of 2018 1st round pick, Terrell Edmunds, is a player that has generated some buzz this offseason. Jeremy Fowler of ESPN had this to say about the least talked about Edmunds brother:

"“Edmunds has been hard to miss during offseason work. He won several drills against linebackers in the open field and looks comfortable in the system as a two-year NFL veteran who also played for New Orleans. The big brother of Steelers safety Terrell Edmunds will be difficult to cut.”"

These are strong words from Fowler who’s reporting started the conversation of whether the Steelers will carry four running backs on the roster. Edmunds was on the roster towards the end of 2018, but was really only a special teams player.

James Conner, Benny Snell Jr., and Jaylen Samuels are currently ahead of Edmund on the depth chart, but it wouldn’t be the first time the Steelers carried four running backs. Especially if two of them play special teams.
