Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Breece Hall

Wednesday, September 24, 6:15 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers announced on Wednesday that they placed running back Najee Harris (Achilles) on Injured Reserve, according to Fernando Ramirez of the Sporting Tribune. Harris' season is over after he tore his Achilles in the Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. It's a disappointing end to his first year with the Bolts after signing with them in free agency in the offseason. The 27-year-old will end his streak of four straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons to begin his career. In his three games this year, Harris carried the ball 15 times for 61 yards and no touchdowns, adding three receptions for 25 yards through the air. The Chargers will be forced to lean more on rookie first-rounder Omarion Hampton as their lead back going forward, making him a must-start each week. Hassan Haskins will be elevated to the RB2 role, with Kimani Vidal the next man up at No. 2 in the backfield.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall will retain his workhorse role this Sunday in the team's road outing with the Baltimore Ravens in Week 12. Hall has been up and down in 2025 as a part of an inconsistent Jets' attack. The volume has been there, though, and he's relegated backfield mate Isaiah Davis to a strictly handcuff role over New York's previous two outings while boasting a 70% snap share or greater. Sunday's meeting with the Ravens presents as an intriguing one, considering the unit was a better matchup for opposing offenses earlier in the campaign, but they've clamped down in recent weeks. There's some hope that the Jets' offense shows a little life with the changeover to Tyrod Taylor at quarterback. If that's the case, Hall could be productive against a defense that's been liable to give up yardage. He's RotoBaller's PPR RB14 ahead of this weekend's slate of action.
