Who Should I Start? Kareem Hunt or Najee Harris

Saturday, November 2, 10:46 PM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 9. Hunt has been heavily involved in his time as the team's lead back, garnering at least 20 carries and a touchdown in the last three games. Hunt was a limited participant in Thursday's practice but logged back-to-back full practices on Friday and Saturday. The Chiefs running back is officially off the injury report and ready for the game. Now Hunt will face the Buccaneers, who rank 25th in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. With Isiah Pacheco still not ready to return to practice, the runway is set for Hunt to take off. The Chiefs are nearly nine-point home favorites in this week's Monday night matchup, so Hunt should be heavily involved in running out the clock. Hunt is ranked RB17 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, so he deserves a place in fantasy lineups.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris turned 19 carries into 114 yards and four targets into three receptions for 17 yards in a Week 8 victory over the New York Giants. Harris looked superb on Monday night and set the tone for Pittsburgh early with nearly 60 rushing yards in the first quarter alone. He continued splitting opportunities with Jaylen Warren, but the Steelers have no reason to go away from Harris when he runs this efficiently. After a quiet start to the campaign, the 26-year-old now ranks sixth in the NFL in rushing yards and is the fantasy RB7 since Week 6. Harris and the 6-2 Steelers will now head into a Week 9 bye with a matchup against the Washington Commanders awaiting in Week 10.
