Najee Harris Could Miss First Four Games of the Season
Los Angeles Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz said on the CBS broadcast on Saturday that running back Najee Harris (eye) is "on track" and "hopefully" will be ready for Week 1 in Brazil against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs on Friday, Sept. 5. However, The Athletic's Daniel Popper thinks Harris will begin the regular season on the Non-Football Injury list, which would mean he'd have to miss at least the first four games. Right now, Popper has rookie first-rounder Omarion Hampton, Hassan Haskins, Raheim Sanders and Kimani Vidal all projected to win spots on the 53-man roster. If Harris were to start on the NFI list, he wouldn't be eligible to make his Chargers debut until Oct. 5 against the Commanders. Harris has missed all of training camp and the preseason due to an eye injury suffered in a fireworks accident. Hampton figures to open as L.A.'s RB1 and is a low-end RB1/high-end RB2 in fantasy.
