Out in Pittsburgh
Shampklin was waived by the Steelers on Monday.
ANALYSIS
Shampklin spent the majority of his 2024 campaign on the Steelers' practice squad and inked a reserve/future deal with the team in mid-January. However, it now appears Pittsburgh has decided to part ways with the 25-year-old running back. The Harvard product appeared in three regular-season games for the Steelers in 2024, logging six carries for 17 yards in addition to 101 kick-return yards. Now a free agent, Shampklin will look to find work with a team in need of running-back depth.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Shampklin went undrafted in 2022 and has yet to appear in a regular-season game in the NFL. He signed with the Steelers ahead of the 2024 campaign but joins a crowded backfield that includes Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson. Shampklin rushed 321 times for 1,888 yards and 20 touchdowns over his final two collegiate seasons at Harvard, but it seems unlikely that he'll have a fantasy-relevant role in Pittsburgh if he makes the 53-man roster.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could move up to RB2 in Week 5
Shampklin could play a meaningful role in Week 5 against the Cowboys, as Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports that Cordarrelle Patterson left Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Colts due to an ankle injury.
ANALYSIS
Jaylen Warren sat out against Indianapolis due to a knee injury, and if neither Warren nor Patterson play in Week 5 against Dallas, Shampklin would be next in line to slide into a change-of-pace role behind Najee Harris. Shampklin got his first NFL carry against the Colts and rushed for five yards, while Harris is averaging just 3.4 yards per carry.
