Who Should I Start? Robert Woods or Najee Harris

According to Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Texans, wide receiver Robert Woods (hip) did not practice on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 32-year-old's status throughout the week. Woods caught two of his four targets for 22 yards during their victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. However, he logged the second-most offensive snaps among Houston wide receivers, only behind Nico Collins. Over his previous four games, Woods has begun to grow into a more prominent role in this offense, as he has seen 3.8 targets per game and averaged 25.2 yards per game. If Woods were to miss Saturday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs, John Metchie III would be deployed as the clear No.2 option behind Collins and carry WR3 value in DFS formats.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris handled six carries for 17 yards and came down with all three of his targets for 41 receiving yards in a Wild Card Round loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Steelers had very little success on the ground throughout the contest and were forced to lean on the passing game after trailing 21-0 at halftime. Harris contributed in the third quarter as he turned short completions into nine, 21, and 11-yard gains. Although his play this season was not necessarily consistent for fantasy purposes, Harris turned in a fourth-straight campaign with at least 1,000 rushing yards. Because Pittsburgh declined to pick up his fifth-year option in 2024, the 26-year-old will search for a new deal and potentially a new home this offseason.
