Should You Start or Sit Najee Harris in Week 14?
Early last week in Cincinnati, it looked as if we were approaching a huge day for Harris, and that was glorious. On Pittsburgh’s first drive, their starting running back was trusted with six touches (50% target share) and turned them into 51 yards.
He got dinged up early and spent some time sidelined, but at the end of the day, 22 touches for 129 yards and a score is plenty profitable. Of course, you don’t get to face the Bengals every week, but the state of Ohio struggles to stop the run these days (you can decide if that is this Penn State alum taking a shot at the Buckeyes coughing up 173 yards on the ground to Michigan over the weekend).
This season, the Browns allow rushing touchdowns to running backs at the sixth-highest rate in the league and the most yards per short completion. Harris is a firm RB2 for me this weekend and should help you earn an important win — enjoy it, it could be a bumpy ride to the finish line.
