Najee Harris start 'em, sit 'em fantasy football lineup picks for Week 16. Should you start or sit Najee Harris in Week 16 (2023) fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start In 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3
ANALYSIS: Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is coming off his worst game of the season. Harris played just 34% of the Steelers' offensive snaps (a season-low) and ran 12 times for 33 yards with one fumble lost. The 25-year-old finished with just 1.30 PPR points, which is the least amount of fantasy points he has scored in a game over his three-year career. That makes him a very risky play against the Cincinnati Bengals in the second round of the fantasy football playoffs.
Harris will be going up against a Cincinnati run defense that ranks middle-of-the-pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to running backs this season. But the last time these two teams faced off, he totaled a season-high 99 rush yards and one touchdown on 15 carries. That bodes well for him in this one.
However, with Jaylen Warren continuing to get more involved on offense, Harris is seeing fewer carries. He has totaled only 12 carries in three of the past five games, while Warren has seen double-digit touches in seven straight games. Harris is more of a flex play in 12-plus team leagues in Week 16.
