Is Najee Harris Hurt Or Healthy?
Pittsburgh running back Najee Harris has underwhelmed from an overall perspective in 2022, but Harris appeared to be trending in the right direction in recent weeks by posting 215 total yards and a pair of TDs across Weeks 10 and 11.
Unfortunately for Harris and his fantasy managers, that positive momentum came to a crashing halt when he left Week 12's Monday night game against the Indianapolis Colts with an abdominal injury. The Steelers' lead RB was not able to return to the game.
After missing Pittsburgh's Wednesday and Thursday practice sessions with the oblique issue, Harris was listed as a limited participant in Friday's practice and, surprisingly, enters the weekend without an official injury designation after telling the media that he plans to play against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13.
Najee Harris Fantasy Football Outlook for Week 13
It's been a roller coaster few weeks for Harris' fantasy managers, as the Alabama alum had produced his best results of the season prior to being injured against the Colts.
His absence from both Wednesday and Thursday practices wasn't encouraging, but his limited participation Friday would indicate that he'll suit up against Atlanta this weekend. It's a great spot for the Steelers' back, as the Falcons rank 25th in the NFL in both Rush Defense DVOA and fantasy points allowed to the RB position.
If Harris is indeed active, fantasy GMs should lock him into their starting lineups against Atlanta.
