Najee Harris Fantasy Stats

Free-agent running back Najee Harris (Achilles) is scheduled to meet with the Las Vegas Raiders next Thursday, sources told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The former Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Chargers RB visited with the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday as he looks for his new home. The 28-year-old former 24th overall pick by the Steelers in 2021 out of Alabama began his NFL career with four straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons in the Steel City. He signed with the Chargers as a free agent last offseason, but he only appeared in three games for the Bolts in 2025 before suffering a season-ending torn Achilles tendon. Harris probably isn't an option to re-sign in L.A. after the Chargers picked up former Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell to give them depth behind Omarion Hampton. If Harris were to sign with Vegas, he'd be the clear backup to second-year back Ashton Jeanty and would merely be a handcuff option in fantasy football leagues.

Former Los Angeles Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (Achilles) visited with the Seattle Seahawks on Wednesday, and the plan is for him to visit with the Las Vegas Raiders next, a source told Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Harris played in every single game in his first four years in the league with the Steelers, but he only played in three games in 2025 with the Chargers before tearing his left Achilles tendon. The 28-year-old former 24th overall pick in 2021 out of Alabama has progressed to sprinting on a treadmill this offseason, though, and he could make sense for a Seahawks backfield that lost Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III to free agency. Zach Charbonnet (knee) isn't expected to be ready for Week 1 this fall, either, so the team could certainly use extra depth alongside Emanuel Wilson and George Holani. Harris had four straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons in the Steel City to begin his career, but his dynasty/keeper stock has taken a big hit coming off an Achilles tear. If he were to land in Seattle, he could be in a three-man committee backfield with Wilson and Holani until Charbonnet returns.

Free agent running back Najee Harris (Achilles) remains unsigned as of March 20. The veteran running back spent most of his one-year deal with the Los Angeles Chargers on injured reserve, and it's possible that teams are being cautious with Harris' free agency due to the injury (or, at least, they don't feel any need to rush a signing). The former first-round pick had a spotless injury history through four years in Pittsburgh, but a fluke preseason fireworks incident involving his eye, followed by a Week 3 Achilles tear, really derailed his fantasy value in 2025. He finished the year with 61 rushing yards and 25 receiving yards across three games, snapping his four-year streak of 1,000-plus rushing yards. Given his age (27) and injury history, Harris is no longer in the mix for a starting running back job. Instead, he'll likely sign somewhere that offers him meaningful snaps in a No. 2 running back role. If he's available to pick up in dynasty leagues and you have a roster spot, it wouldn't hurt to take a chance on Harris. He could end up being a valuable handcuff in 2026, and there's even a slim chance that he could have standalone value as a low-end RB3/flex depending on his landing spot.

Los Angeles Chargers impending free-agent running back Najee Harris (Achilles) is "looking outstanding" five months after having surgery for a torn Achilles tendon and is "running with ease" at 15 mph on an Alter-G treadmill, according to his agent, Doug Hendrickson. Harris' first season with the Chargers came to an end when he tore his Achilles in Week 3, allowing rookie Omarion Hampton to take over lead-back duties for most of the year. It ended Harris' streak of four straight seasons with 1,000 rushing yards to begin his career, as he finished with just 61 rushing yards and no touchdowns on 15 carries in three games in L.A. The soon-to-be 28-year-old will be back on the free-agent market this offseason, and although he appears to be healing nicely, he's unlikely to have a very robust market coming off a major injury.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris (Achilles) missed most of the 2025 season due to a torn Achilles, and he's scheduled to hit free agency for the second offseason in a row. Harris parlayed a solid four-year stint with the Steelers into a one-year deal with the Chargers last offseason, but he was held to just 86 scrimmage yards across three games before suffering his season-ending injury. It was a big change from his time in Pittsburgh, where he had never missed a game through four seasons. He played well there, ranking as a top-24 fantasy running back every season. He peaked as a rookie in 2021 when he was the overall RB3 in PPR formats. Given his injury recovery, Harris likely won't sign a contract that would allow him to be a lead-back somewhere. In all likelihood, he'll offer a solid veteran presence while splitting snaps with a younger, less-established running back. His days of being a must-start fantasy running back are over, but he can still be a strong RB3/flex depending on the situation. He's worth holding in most dynasty leagues.

The Los Angeles Chargers announced on Wednesday that they placed running back Najee Harris (Achilles) on Injured Reserve, according to Fernando Ramirez of the Sporting Tribune. Harris' season is over after he tore his Achilles in the Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. It's a disappointing end to his first year with the Bolts after signing with them in free agency in the offseason. The 27-year-old will end his streak of four straight 1,000-yard rushing seasons to begin his career. In his three games this year, Harris carried the ball 15 times for 61 yards and no touchdowns, adding three receptions for 25 yards through the air. The Chargers will be forced to lean more on rookie first-rounder Omarion Hampton as their lead back going forward, making him a must-start each week. Hassan Haskins will be elevated to the RB2 role, with Kimani Vidal the next man up at No. 2 in the backfield.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris (Achilles) is officially out for the rest of the season due to a torn Achilles he suffered during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Denver Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Harris was lined up in the backfield when he suffered a non-contact Achilles injury in Week 3. He immediately went to the locker room and was ruled out. With Harris sidelined, rookie first-round pick Omarion Hampton will step in as the team's clear-cut RB1 and immediately work his way into the top-20 running backs to start in Week 4. Hassan Haskins projects to step into the No. 2 role. It was a tough season for Harris, as he was slowed down by an eye injury over the summer and now this injury. At 27 years old, Harris remains a hold in dynasty formats, but can be dropped in redraft leagues.

Preliminary testing indicates that Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris suffered a torn Achilles during Sunday's Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos, according to head coach Jim Harbaugh. Harris suffered the injury on a non-contact play while planting his feet in the backfield, and he was eventually carted off the field. The Chargers will order additional testing to confirm Harris' diagnosis, but he's likely done for the season. It's a crushing blow for the veteran running back, who had never missed a game due to injury before arriving in Los Angeles. This summer, he injured his eye during a fireworks incident, and now, he's likely done for the year with a torn Achilles. He'll work to recover and get healthy before hitting free agency for the second consecutive offseason next March. In the meantime, Omarion Hampton will take over full possession of the lead-back role while Hassan Haskins offers a change of pace.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris suffered an Achilles injury during Sunday's Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos, head coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed. He's scheduled to undergo additional testing soon. Harris suffered the injury on a non-contact play while planting his feet in the backfield, and he was eventually carted off the field. Non-contact Achilles injuries typically come with lengthy recovery timetables, so it's possible that Harris is done for the season. Rapoport notes that the Chargers don't have an exact timetable for Harris, but they're not optimistic. The veteran running back, who never missed a game with the Pittsburgh Steelers, has suddenly faced significant injury trouble in Los Angeles. First, he injured his eye during a fireworks incident over the summer, and now, he's likely done for the year with an Achilles injury. He'll work to recover and get healthy before hitting free agency for the second consecutive offseason next March. In the meantime, Omarion Hampton will take over full possession of the lead-back role while Hassan Haskins offers a change of pace.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris (ankle) rushed for 28 yards on six carries before exiting during the second quarter of Sunday's Week 3 contest against the Denver Broncos. He suffered a non-contact injury and was carted off the field. The team has officially ruled him out for the remainder of the contest, and there's very real concern about his long-term outlook. Although the team is officially calling it an ankle injury, video appeared to show Harris suffering a serious Achilles injury while trying to plant his foot in the backfield. Non-contact Achilles injuries typically come with lengthy recovery timetables, so it's possible that Harris is done for the season.
