Najee Harris News
Tuesday, October 20, 7:15 AM
New York Giants running back Najee Harris is being released, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport, ending his brief stint with the team after he signed in August. Harris had just been moved into the starting lineup for Sunday's 34-27 loss to New Orleans but managed only two yards on four carries. The Giants' running backs combined for 34 yards on 14 attempts, and head coach John Harbaugh has challenged someone to establish himself as the clear lead option. Harris' departure further reshapes a backfield that already has questions around Cam Skattebo, who lost his starting job after repeated fumbling issues and didn't record a touch against the Saints. Tyrone Tracy Jr. made the strongest case for more work Sunday, scoring twice on eight touches, while Devin Singletary added 33 scrimmage yards. Tracy's performance gives him some momentum, but Harris' release doesn't necessarily set a new backfield hierarchy.

Emanuel Wilson News
Saturday, October 24, 7:20 AM
Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson should operate as the team's No. 1 option out of the backfield against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. The team chose not to activate Zach Charbonnet (knee) from injured reserve this week, leaving Wilson in line to lead the backfield one more time. The 27-year-old has posted mixed results since taking on an expanded role near the start of the season, but he has been pretty consistent over the last three weeks in particular. During that three-game stretch, he's averaging 18.3 carries, 64.7 rushing yards, 1.7 receptions, 16.7 receiving yards, and 0.7 touchdowns per game. He has been sharing some touches with George Holani, but Wilson is the undisputed lead-back option as long as Charbonnet is sidelined. This is likely Wilson's final week in the RB2/RB3 range, but he's still a very strong streaming option for managers in need of a running back due to bye weeks or injuries.
