Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Darrynton Evans

While Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan said that the team thinks "very highly" of running back Najee Harris, he was also non-committal on whether the team will pick up his fifth-year option. Harris' future is thus uncertain despite the fact that he's recorded three straight 1,000-yard seasons while making team history. Harris' fifth-year option, which was set at $6.79 million, must be decided on by May 2. If they pick it up, it would become fully guaranteed for the 2025 season. It would be a surprise if Pittsburgh didn't pick it up, considering they have invested heavily in a ground-and-pound offensive rushing attack and just hired Arthur Smith as their new offensive coordinator. The 25-year-old would figure to have a solid fantasy floor if he sticks with the Steelers, although Jaylen Warren will continue to be a thorn in his upside.

Miami Dolphins running back Darrynton Evans was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster, the team announced. Evans spent the first half of this season with the Bears, totaling a career-high 105 rushing yards, 49 receiving yards, and one touchdown. His promotion to Miami's active roster suggests that there's a real chance De'Von Achane (knee) or Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) will not play on Friday. Fantasy managers invested in this backfield should check back for updates on the Dolphins' final injury report Thursday afternoon.
