PITTSBURGH, Pa (WKBN) – The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted former Maryland running back Anthony McFarland Jr. in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft Saturday.
The redshirt sophomore has struggled with injuries, but finally healthy, he burst onto the scene the past two years with the Terrapins.
He started seven of 11 games played in 2019 with eight touchdowns and an impressive 5.4 yards per carry. McFarland Jr. battled through a high-ankle sprain which ultimately limited his numbers.
