Toussaint carried the ball 12 times for 24 yards in relief of DeAngelo Williams during Sunday's win over Cleveland. Williams was in a walking boot following the contest, Missi Matthews of Steelers.com reports.
Toussaint more than doubled his season total in rushing yards with his modest production on Sunday. The Steelers have leaned heavily on their lead back all season, first with Le'Veon Bell and then DeAngelo Williams. Should Williams miss next week's Wild Card game, Toussaint would have the advantage of knowing the offense over anyone the Steelers may bring in off the street.
