Le’Veon Bell would be proud, as Pittsburgh Steelers running backs Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle went viral at OTAs for a hilarious drill that emphasized patience at the point of attack.
At OTAs, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic posted some footage of an interesting drill in which Warren and Dowdle hilariously dodged two moving football tackle wheels for patience, which quickly garnered buzz on social media.

With two trainers on each side and one in the middle, the drill is designed to help Warren and Dowdle become more patient, waiting for their opportunity and eventually bursting through the gap.
Warren and Dowdle, two undrafted yet exceptional running backs, form what should be a top-three running back duo for Pittsburgh, likely playing a massive role in the Aaron Rodgers-led offense in 2026.
