Fantasy Impact: Even if the Steelers did practice, they would likely limit Mendenhall's reps as a precaution. The important news is that he emerged from Sunday's game with no setbacks, playing 22-of-73 snaps in his season debut after a torn ACL. Mendenhall had 14 carries for 81 yards and a TD, and added two catches for 20 yards as he gave the running game a spark they never had with Isaac Redman or Jonathan Dwyer. Expect the Steelers to increase his workload this week. He's a great fantasy play against the Titans' porous run defense.
