Who Should I Start? Chase Brown or Tre' Harris

Saturday, September 13, 12:17 PM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had only 43 yards off 21 carries in the Week 1 win over Cleveland. His 2.0 yards per carry was a tough pill to swallow for fantasy managers. Still, he at least found the end zone, so the afternoon wasn't a total flop. The same can't be said for the rest of the Bengals offense, with Joe Burrow throwing for 113 yards and one touchdown. To make matters worse, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins combined for five receptions. Despite the subpar offensive showing, Cincinnati managed to pull off a narrow one-point victory. With a win in the books, Brown and company will host the Jaguars in Week 2. Without question, the Bengals have struggled to begin the season in the last few years. However, Brown and company have a great chance of turning things around. Although he sometimes struggles picking up yards on the ground, his versatility as a pass-catching back makes a difference. Sunday's game is expected to be one of the highest-scoring contests on the schedule, so both offenses may be clicking on all cylinders. All things considered, Brown should be more productive in Week 2, especially if Burrow can get the offense into the Red Zone more than he did against Cleveland. Keep Brown rolling in all fantasy lineups.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris (undisclosed) was "working off to the side" during the team's practice on Wednesday, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic. Harris missed the team's preseason finale against the San Francisco 49ers with an undisclosed injury, and his status for Week 1 is not yet clear. With Ladd McConkey and Keenan Allen locked in as the Chargers' top two wide receivers, Harris is seemingly battling Quentin Johnston for the team's WR3 role. A second-round pick out of Ole Miss, Harris was having a solid preseason before getting injured. He may struggle to make a fantasy impact in 2025 unless there's an injury to either McConkey or Allen, but Harris has significant upside as a dynasty prospect.
