Who Should I Start? Lynn Bowden Jr. or Kevin Harris

Friday, December 15, 10:27 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Lynn Bowden has played a partial role in the offense over the past few weeks with Rashid Shaheed (thigh) missing time. Shaheed has logged back-to-back limited practices, indicating that he has a chance to be on the field on Sunday against the New York Giants. Shaheed's status in this game will determine Bowden's role. If Shaheed plays, Bowden cannot be considered in lineups. If he misses, Bowden is a deep league flier against a New York defense surrendering the sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers. Chris Olave (ankle) is likely to miss, giving plenty of target opportunities to the rest of the Saints' weapons.

New England Patriots running back Kevin Harris rushed for 15 yards on two carries during Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. He also caught both of his targets for an additional 54 yards through the air. Most of his production came from a short pass that Harris ultimately took 48 yards down the field, putting New England in the red zone and setting up a Bailey Zappe rushing touchdown. With Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) sidelined, the second-year back is averaging five touches per game since Week 15. However, he remains off the fantasy radar in most redraft formats.
