Harris rose 11 ADP spots and might be the favorite for RB2 duties in New York after Tyrone Tracy's nightmare preseason and injury in the team's final game. Harris has ties to the Giants' staff via Greg Roman, who coached him in LA last year. In Harris's second game with the Chargers, he held Omarion Hampton to an 8-8 carries standstill before going down after his sixth carry; Hampton had five carries at that time. The source argues Harris earns the trust of his coaches and they return the favor with more carries than fantasy managers want to see. As a late addition to the Giants, that might not happen right away, but Harris should be viewed as the season-long backup.

Najee Harris signed with the Giants on Aug. 18 after suffering a torn Achilles in Week 4 last season with the Chargers. Head coach John Harbaugh expressed confidence in Harris's recovery and readiness, stating: "He's in good shape, he came in in good shape. He's even leaned up a little bit. I think the football movement has kind of got him chiseled a little more than he was. He looks good, he looks like he's ready to play." Harris produced four consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons in his first four years with the Steelers and is expected to compete for a role in the Giants' ground game, potentially slotting in as the No. 2 running back behind starter Cam Skattebo despite arriving late in training camp.
