Damien Harris Announces His Retirement

Monday, March 25, 9:07 PM

Former New England Patriots running back Damien Harris announced his retirement from professional football on Monday at age 27. The Patriots selected Harris in the third round (87th overall) in the 2019 NFL draft out of Alabama, and he had 449 rushing attempts for 2,094 yards and 20 touchdowns in his four years in New England in 38 regular-season games (34 starts) while adding 40 receptions on 51 targets for an additional 281 receiving yards. Harris spent the 2023 campaign with the Buffalo Bills but played in only six games before suffering a season-ending concussion/neck injury that saw him be taken off the field in an ambulance. He'll end his NFL career after just five seasons, recording 2,188 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns on 427 carries with the Pats and Bills.

Najee Harris Earns Primary Backup Gig

Tuesday, September 29, 5:51 PM

New York Giants running back Najee Harris was effective on the ground during the Week 3 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Harris made his team debut in Week 2, but he saw more involvement in the offense this past weekend. Harris rushed the ball nine times for 52 yards in the win. The veteran back has quickly pushed his way to being the primary backup behind Cam Skattebo in this offense. His role figures continue to grow as he spends more time with this team. Fantasy managers should consider Harris as the primary handcuff to Skattebo right now. He could be worth stashing in deep leagues, but he probably doesn't have standalone value while Skattebo is healthy.
