Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Jaylen Wright

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that the team planned to give running back Najee Harris 12 to 15 plays in the Week 1 season opener last Friday in Brazil against the Kansas City Chiefs and capped him at 12. However, Harbaugh said Harris' workload could change in a Week 2 divisional clash on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders. Harris was only on the field for 12 plays last Friday in the 27-21 win but managed just one carry for five yards while catching his only target for another five-yard pickup. Meanwhile, first-round rookie Omarion Hampton led the Bolts' backfield with 15 carries for 48 yards (3.2 yards per tote) while adding two catches for 13 yards. Harris missed almost all of training camp and the entire preseason with an eye injury, which is why L.A. eased him in. While he could see the field more in Week 2, he still won't be much more than a shaky RB3/flex in fantasy.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright (knee) was listed as a limited participant for the team's estimated practice report on Monday. Wright has not played in either of the first two games of the season, but he'll have a shot to be active for the first time this Thursday night against the division-rival Buffalo Bills after getting in three straight limited practices, dating back to last Thursday. The 22-year-old will most likely be eased back into Miami's offense when he returns, but he's fully expected to take over RB2 duties from rookie Ollie Gordon II when that happens. Gordon has been a distant No. 2 behind De'Von Achane in two games with Wright sidelined, carrying the football only three times for 12 yards and catching both his targets for a gain of four yards. Wright is merely a bench stash for RB depth right now.
