  "account": "Ben Roethlisberger recently asserted that Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is deserving of MVP consideration on his podcast. Warren has been an instrumental part of the Steelers' success this season, amassing 998 scrimmage yards which ranks third in the league. His impressive performance has sparked discussions about his potential to be named league MVP or offensive MVP. Roethlisberger highlighted Warren's exceptional yards after contact, which are among the highest in the league. The running back averages 4.89 yards per touch, the most for any back with at least 100 touches. Despite his elite efficiency, Warren remains unranked among the top 16 players with a higher probability of winning the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year award, primarily due to his three touchdown output. Roethlisberger maintains that Warren's contributions far surpass the current perception, and he deserves much greater attention for his remarkable season with the Steelers.",
