Najee Harris Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Steelers RB Najee Harris rushed 21 times for 102 yards and 1 TD in a Week 7 win over the Jets. He’s now posted two straight games over 100 rushing yards for just the second time in his career.

Steelers RB Najee Harris (ribs) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He'll be ready for his usual role in Sunday night's game against the Jets.

Steelers RB Najee Harris (ribs) did not practice on Wednesday. He's coming off a 14-carry, 106-yard outing vs. the Raiders, and we're guessing this was more of a rest day than a legitimate injury. We'll see if Harris gets back on the practice field tomorrow, ahead of Sunday night's game vs. the Jets.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren was upgraded today and now has no injury designation for Week 6 against the Raiders. Warren has dealt with hamstring and knee injuries during the offseason and season so far. He could see a prominent role in the Steelers' run game with Najee Harris being ineffective so far this year.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Raiders. He was a full participant in Friday’s practice, which seemingly puts him on track to play, despite HC Mike Tomlin labeling him doubtful early in the week. Warren would be tough to trust in fantasy lineups in his first action since Week 3, but his return puts a significant dent in RB Najee Harris’ workload projection.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin ruled RB Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) out and labeled RB Jaylen Warren (knee) doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders. Making those proclamations so early in the week doesn't bode well for either guy's availability for Week 7. The Steelers have a Week 9 bye, and it's possible we don't see either guy before then. RB Najee Harris will again dominate backfield touches for Pittsburgh this weekend. He's tallied 27 carries and eight targets over the last two weeks, although it hasn't resulted in many fantasy points.

Steelers RBs Jaylen Warren (knee) and Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) are out for Sunday night’s game vs. the Cowboys. Both missed practice all week. Their absences leave Aaron Shampklin as Pittsburgh’s No. 2 RB. Najee Harris should handle a heavy workload against Dallas.

Steelers RBs Jaylen Warren (knee) and Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) were held out of Wednesday's practice. They're both iffy for Sunday night's game vs. the Cowboys. If they miss, Pittsburgh would be down to Aaron Shampklin as the No. 2 RB behind Najee Harris. Expect Harris to be very busy in that case.

Steelers RB Najee Harris managed only 19 yards on 13 carries in Sunday's loss to the Colts. Although the final found Pittsburgh just 3 points behind, Indianapolis jumped out to a 17-0 lead before 3 minutes were gone in the second quarter. That helped Harris log just 6 first-half carries (for 5 yards). The RB boosted his fantasy line a bit with 54 yards on 3 receptions. His 6 targets ranked third on the team, behind George Pickens and Pat Freiermuth.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Colts. We still don’t have any details on his injury or a timeline for his return. Warren’s absence should leave RB Najee Harris in a workhorse role this weekend. RB Cordarrelle Patterson figures to mix in for a handful of touches as the No. 2.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Mike Tomlin said earlier this week that he expected Warren to be limited today. We're tentatively projecting him to miss Sunday's game vs. the Colts. RB Najee Harris didn't practice on Wednesday but is listed with "rest." He'll be ready for this weekend's game and will be busy if Warren sits.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that RB Najee Harris won't have any limitations in practice this week. Harris' arm was in a sling following the Week 3 win over the Chargers, but he'll be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Colts. Harris might play a bigger role than usual because RB Jaylen Warren's availability for that one is in question, according to Tomlin. Warren was scheduled for an MRI on an injured knee, but we still haven't heard the results. Fantasy owners should not be planning on using him in Week 4 lineups.

Steelers RB Najee Harris' right arm was in a sling on Monday, while RB Jaylen Warren is scheduled for an MRI on his knee, according to PennLive's Nick Farabaugh. We should get updates on both guys within the next 24 hours. Cordarrelle Patterson is the top healthy RB in Pittsburgh right now and could be worth a speculative add in deeper leagues. Pittsburgh has RBs Jonathan Ward and Aaron Shampklin on the practice squad. Week 4 brings a plus matchup against the Colts.

Steelers RB Najee Harris rushed 18 times for 70 yards in a Week 3 win over the Chargers. Harris entered halftime with only 3 rushing yards.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is inactive for today’s opener vs. the Falcons. He was pushing to play, but the team will hold him out after he aggravated his calf injury in practice this week. QB Justin Fields gets the start for Pittsburgh and is a more exciting fantasy option than Wilson. But Fields dings the fantasy value of the Steelers’ skill-position players. See where they all sit in the Week 1 Rankings.

Steelers QB Justin Fields is "more likely" than QB Russell Wilson to start Sunday's opener vs. the Falcons, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport says. A final decision on Wilson's status hasn't yet been made, Rapoport adds. Wilson is scheduled to go through a workout on Saturday. But Rapoport notes that Wilson didn't do much in Friday's practice, while Fields took all the first-team reps.

Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s opener vs. the Falcons. He experienced discomfort with his troublesome calf on Thursday and was limited again in Friday’s practice.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (hamstring) said Monday that he expects to play Week 1. He did some light work off to the side of Monday's practice -- nine days after hurting his hamstring.

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that RB Jaylen Warren will be sidelined this week but that his hamstring injury is "not anything that's a long-term concern."
