Najee Harris Remains a Handcuff Against Commanders

Saturday, October 10, 7:18 AM

New York Giants running back Najee Harris had nine carries for 30 yards in the 36-24 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Despite an increased workload over the last two weeks, Harris fumbled in the fourth quarter and did not receive another touch after the mistake. Since Week 3, Harris has played 20% of snaps, starter Cam Skattebo 69%, and third-string Tyrone Tracy Jr. 9%. They face a difficult test against the Washington Commanders, who have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. With Skattebo (shoulder) off the injury report, Harris should remain out of fantasy lineups as a handcuff until he earns a larger role.

George Holani Still a Riskier Play Despite Climbing the Depth Chart

Saturday, October 10, 6:00 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani has emerged as the team's undisputed No. 2 ball carrier, but that has yet to result in consistent production across fantasy football leagues. Holani continues to operate behind Emanuel Wilson, even after Jadarian Price (chest) was placed on injured reserve. He did catch five passes back in Week 3, but that number dropped back down to one last Sunday. Holani's outlook continues to depend quite heavily on his role in the passing game. As long as he's posting games like last week where he caught just one pass, he's completely avoidable in fantasy leagues while Wilson handles an every-down role. It's also worth noting that the Seahawks have a very tough matchup against the 49ers, who are 4-0 and could make positive game-script scenarios harder to come by. Until he shows that he can contribute more consistently, Holani ranks as a low-end RB4 in fantasy football, and so he belongs on the bench in most leagues.
