Who Should I Start? Najee Harris or Van Jefferson

Friday, May 29, 5:50 AM

Free agent running back Najee Harris is a name to monitor as teams around the league gather for organized practices and get their first real looks at the rosters they've assembled throughout the offseason. Should injury or legal situation create an unexpected running back need, Harris is arguably the most intriguing option left on the market despite his 2025 season ending after only 15 carries with a ruptured Achilles. Before landing with the Chargers, he had volumed his way to 1,000 rushing yards in each of his four seasons in Pittsburgh, though efficiency was never his calling card even prior to the injury. At 28 years old, any return to action will likely come in a committee role, but in the right situation, he could still find enough fantasy relevance to justify a roster spot in deep dynasty leagues. At RotoBaller's dynasty RB82, Harris is potentially sitting on waiver wires, and while he may not find a new home until well into training camp, he's worth a low-stakes claim wherever available while his perceived value is still at its floor.
