Who Should I Start? Trey Sermon or Jordan Mims

Sunday, May 11, 1:38 PM

The Pittsburgh Steelers signed free-agent running back Trey Sermon to an undisclosed one-year deal on Sunday, sources told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Sermon will head to the AFC North after spending the last two seasons with the Indianapolis Colts as a backup to Jonathan Taylor, where he saw 91 carries for 319 yards (3.5 yards per carry) and two touchdowns on the ground in 31 games (three starts). He added 19 receptions on 25 targets for 112 yards through the air. The 26-year-old former third-rounder (88th overall) by the San Francisco 49ers in 2021 out of Ohio State will now join a crowded backfield in Pittsburgh that includes rookie third-rounder Kaleb Johnson, Jaylen Warren and free-agent acquisition Kenneth Gainwell. Sermon only averaged 2.8 yards a carry in 2024 and will likely need an injury or two to resurface on the fantasy radar in the Steel City.

The Tennessee Titans agreed on an undisclosed two-year deal with free-agent running back Jordan Mims on Thursday, a source told FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. The former Fresno State standout spent his first two seasons in the NFL with the New Orleans Saints and had 20 rushing attempts last season for 70 rushing yards while also catching 12 of 18 targets for 71 yards through the air in 11 games (zero starts). The 26-year-old went undrafted out of Fresno State before latching on with the Saints in 2023. Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears are the unquestioned top two backs for the Titans going into the 2025 campaign, so Mims will be competing for a depth role in training camp this summer with Julius Chestnut, rookie Kalel Mullings and Tyrion Davis-Price.
