Najee Harris
2025 Season Outlooks
Harris went from sharing the Steelers' backfield with Jaylen Warren to sharing the Chargers' backfield with first-round pick Omarion Hampton. This is not a good development for his Fantasy value. As a rule, first-round running backs become workhorse running backs, but Harris is the type of veteran who might hold a rookie off a little longer than expected. He has never missed a game in his career and he only has five fumbles on 1,097 career attempts, including zero last year. There's also a pretty extensive track record of running backs reaching good-but-not-great individual stats under the playcalling of Chargers offensive coordinator Greg Roman. We wouldn't be surprised if Harris holds onto a role in short yardage and on passing downs, but Hampton will get enough work to keep Harris from being a must-start. Don't draft him before Round 8, and don't expect much more than flex production if Hampton stays healthy.
Harris signed with the Chargers after spending his first four seasons in Pittsburgh. He is as durable as they come, as he's the only tailback who has appeared in 100% of his team's games over the past four seasons. He has yet to finish a season lower than seventh in the league in carries (255-plus each season), but that figures to change this season with first-round rookie Omarion Hampton likely to handle lead-back duties in Los Angeles. Harris also figures to be very limited as a receiver, as Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman have a long history of low RB usage in the pass game, in addition to the fact Harris has finished outside the top 20 RBs in targets each of the past two seasons. Harris has ranked in the 20-to-30 range in fantasy PPG each of the past three seasons, but even if he splits carries with Hampton, he'll be hard-pressed to produce consistent flex numbers.
