Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Quinshon Judkins

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that running back Najee Harris (eye) could play in Week 1, according to the team's official website. The first-year Charger returned to practice on Wednesday and has not been placed on the reserve/non-football injury list, opening up the possibility he is active for the season opener against Kansas City. Harris sustained the injury during a July 4 fireworks accident and had not practiced since June. When healthy, he's likely to split work with rookie Omarion Hampton.

Cleveland Browns rookie running back Quinshon Judkins remains unsigned but is not considering a return to college, according to Mary Kay Cabot of Cleveland.com. Earlier in the week, NBC's Mike Florio reported that the former Ohio State standout could begin to pursue a return to college, but Cabot's recent report suggests the running back is not planning to go this route. Earlier in the offseason, Judkins was arrested for domestic violence and battery charges. While his prosecutors dropped the charges against him, he has yet to agree to a rookie contract with the Broncos. Additionally, the NFL could still suspend him after conducting their own investigation. Given his uncertain situation, it is best to leave Judkins off your draft board for the time being. Throughout the preseason, fellow rookie Dylan Sampson and veteran Jerome Ford have shared the backfield and will likely open the season as the 1A and 1B in the running back room.
