Najee Harris

Najee Harris

RB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers' Najee Harris (knee) active for Week 14

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) is available for Week 14's game against the New England Patriots on Thursday Night Football. As expected, Harris has been upgraded from questionable to available and will be active for Thursday night's showdown with New England. Our models expect him to handle 14.7 carries and catch 1.8 passes against the Patriots. Harris' Week 14 projection includes 57.2 rushing yards, 10.6 receiving yards, 0.39 total touchdowns, and 9.8 FanDuel points. His single-game salary is $14,000.

RB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Najee Harris (knee) expected to play Thursday for Steelers

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) is expected to play on Thursday night versus the New England Patriots in Week 14, reports Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Harris is listed as questionable after sitting out practice on Tuesday and Wednesday, but he will suit up on the short week. Jaylen Warren should see more work if Harris is limited or suffers a setback. Harris rushed 16 times for 63 yards and caught 2 passes (3 targets) for 14 yards versus the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13. Harris has a $14,000 single-game salary and numberFire's models project him for 9.9 FanDuel points, with 14.8 carries, 57.4 rushing yards, 1.8 receptions, and 10.6 receiving yards. Per our opponent-adjusted efficiency rankings for the season, the Patriots have the best run defense and fifth-worst pass defense in the league.

Najee Harris

RB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh's Najee Harris (knee) questionable in Week 14

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) is questionable for Week 14's contest versus the New England Patriots. Harris' availability could be on the wrong side of questionable after he missed all of Pittsburgh's practices. Expect Jaylen Warren to see a feature role against a New England defense allowing 19.7 fantasy points per game to running backs if Harris is ruled out. Harris' current projection includes 14.7 rushing attempts for 57.3 yards and 1.8 receptions for 10.5 yards.

RB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh's Najee Harris (knee) DNP on Tuesday

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (knee) did not practice on Tuesday. Harris' Week 13 availability could be in question on a short week after he was a non-participant on Tuesday with a knee injury. Expect Jaylen Warren to see a lead role on Thursday against a New England Patriots' unit ranked 15th in fantasy points (19.7) allowed per game to running backs if Harris is unable to practice. Harris' current projection includes 14.7 rushing attempts for 57.3 yards and 1.8 receptions for 10.5 yards.

Mitch Trubisky

Mitch Trubisky

QB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Mitchell Trubisky starting Week 13 for Steelers on Thursday

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mitchell Trubisky will start on Thursday versus the New England Patriots in Week 13, per head coach Mike Tomlin. Trubisky will make at least one start after Kenny Pickett underwent ankle surgery on Monday. He entered in the second quarter on Sunday versus the Arizona Cardinals and completed 11 of 17 pass attempts for 117 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions. However, the majority of production came in garbage time of the Steelers' 24-10 loss. The Steelers will likely try to rely on the run game even more while Trubisky is filling in for Pickett. Trubisky averaged 0.47 while Pickett averaged 0.06 Passing Net Expected Points per attempt versus the Cardinals in Week 13, so the quarterback change might not be a downgrade for Pittsburgh's pass-catchers. The Patriots are a tough draw in Trubisky's first start, as they allow the sixth-fewest FanDuel points per game to quarterbacks this season.

Kenny Pickett

Kenny Pickett

QB / Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers' Kenny Pickett (ankle) expected to return this season

What it means:

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett (ankle) is expected to return this season, per head coach Mike Tomlin. Pickett underwent successful surgery on Monday after suffering an ankle sprain in Sunday's 24-10, Week 13 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He will not play on Thursday night versus the New England Patriots in Week 14, but the Steelers expect Pickett to return before the end of the season. Mitchell Trubisky, who replaced Pickett versus the Cardinals, will start on Thursday in a tough matchup. The Steelers will likely try to rely on the run game even more without Pickett under center. Pickett completed 7 of 10 pass attempts for 70 yards before exiting early on Sunday. Trubisky went 11 of 17 for 117 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions, but more than half of the production came in garbage time. The Patriots are allowing the sixth-fewest FanDuel points per game to quarterbacks this season.
