Warren should see his role increase as he gets healthier, but Harris is the bruiser that Arthur Smith wants to slam between the tackles on the early downs.
The Steelers settled for six field goals last week, but have a good matchup against a bad Broncos team this week. Harris should handle the goal-line touches and is a good bet to find the end zone if Pittsburgh can sustain some drives on offense.
Harris is a RB2 or Flex play with upside this week as the Steelers are likely to keep feeding him touches while Justin Fields settles into the quarterback job.
