2024 Outlook
Depth Chart
Despite the fantasy universe, and many Steeler fans begging for the ascension of Jaylen Warren, the Steelers continued to rely on Harris as the workhorse. His RB2 finish was solid with eight scores, and a career best yards-per-carry average (4.1), It wasn't all good news, as Harris saw a career low 284 touches, including a miserly 29 receptions. The precipitous drop in receptions from his rookie year of 74 is by far the biggest obstacle to his fantasy value, even more so than the presence of Warren. Harris fits the mold of this team by being reliable, even if Warren does provide more pop and sizzle. Despite declining his 5th year option, the Steelers trust Harris, and their steadfast dedication to him as the workhorse won't be changing significantly. Guaranteed volume on a conservative run-first offense, and reliability (he's never missed a game) means a lot for a fantasy back, and he should remain as an ideal RB2 even if his PPR value is not nearly what it once was.

News From The Past 90 Days
Injury Jaylen Warren expected to miss some time
Knee injury; underwent MRI on Monday

FFToday's Take: Monday's MRI must have revealed enough inflammation or damage to convince the team to call him week-to-week on Tuesday. Warren's absence should be a slight boon to Najee Harris' fantasy stock, although Pittsburgh's offense has been so conservative that no one outside of George Pickens and maybe Justin Fields have been usable in fantasy. Cordarrelle Patterson figures to assume most of Warren's role in the offense and is worth adding off waivers this week.


Injury Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren both ailing
Harris nursing likely arm injury; Warren dealing with a knee issue

FFToday's Take: HC Mike Tomlin has yet to speak on the issue with the media, so there's not much to report yet. With that said, the fact Harris has his arm in a sling suggests he is more likely than not to miss a game for the first time in his NFL career against the Colts in Week 4. Warren dealt with a hamstring injury right before the start of the season, so his season has not gotten off to the greatest start. Cordarrelle Patterson would be the next man up for the Steelers and would be worth starting as a flex option in deeper leagues if Harris and Warren are both sidelined.


Injury Jaylen Warren anticipates playing in opener
Recovering from a preseason hamstring injury

FFToday's Take: Warren came at a discount during August drafts due to the hamstring injury. While his fantasy managers should rejoice because of that, Pittsburgh's offensive line may not be what most expected due to the injuries it has dealt with so far. With that said, Warren still profiles as a capable flex option who will likely dabble with RB2 production on occasion. Najee Harris should still be drafted a bit earlier based on his expected workload.
