Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Dameon Pierce

Monday, September 25, 1:51 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris totaled 65 rushing yards on 19 carries in a Week 3 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. Harris managed a few impressive runs but was ultimately inefficient once again. Although his usage on the ground was encouraging, Harris was mostly uninvolved in the passing game and was unable to secure his only target. Despite reports of Jaylen Warren earning more opportunities, Harris remained Pittsburgh's clear-cut RB1 on Sunday night. His fantasy output has been disappointing through three weeks, but there is reason to be optimistic as the Steelers' offense looked much improved this week. Harris will project as a solid RB2 option next week against the Houston Texans.

Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce picked up his first touchdown of the season in the team's 37-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 3. Pierce saw more usage on offense this week, which helped him secure 17 touches in this one. He ran 14 times for 31 yards and one touchdown while also catching three passes for 28 yards. The second-year back got the Texans on the board early with a one-yard score in the first quarter. He will look to continue his touchdown streak next week at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
