I like Najee Harris as a No. 2 running back in all leagues in Week 14 against Cleveland. I just hope he does better against the Browns in the rematch than he did in Week 12.
Harris has scored at least 11.3 PPR points in six of his past seven games, including four games during that stretch with at least 16.1 PPR points. The lone game where he struggled was at Cleveland when he had 16 carries for 41 yards and two catches for 13 yards on two targets.
The hope is Harris does one of two things — if not both. The Browns have allowed eight rushing touchdowns in their past four games, and Harris has scored a touchdown in four of his past seven outings. Jaylen Warren scored a rushing touchdown against Cleveland in Week 12, but hopefully, that goes to Harris in Week 14.
I also hope Harris remains a significant factor in the passing game. In Week 13 at Cincinnati, Harris had six catches for 54 yards on six targets, which was the second time in three games he had at least five targets and four catches. He didn’t have those same chances in the passing game against the Browns.
With six teams on a bye, Harris has the potential to be a top-15 Fantasy running back in all leagues. I also like Warren as a solid flex option given the matchup. Hopefully, both Pittsburgh running backs can find the end zone and work in the passing game against this Cleveland defense in Week 14.
