Darnell Washington at Tampa Bay — Niche Role in Shorthanded Offense

Operating behind Pat Freiermuth on the depth chart, Washington continues to carve out high-leverage snaps in Pittsburgh's offense. He has drawn eight targets over his last two contests, capitalizing on his massive frame in the red zone. With wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. sidelined on injured reserve, the Steelers could turn to more multi-tight-end packages on the road in Tampa Bay.

Even with vacated targets, Washington's fantasy floor remains low without volume. Our weekly projection expects roughly two receptions for 24 yards in what projects as a low-scoring contest. Rostered in just three percent of leagues, he remains a bench option for standard formats, serving only as a touchdown-dependent dart throw in deep leagues.

Outlook Najee Harris

Najee Harris vs. Saints — Committee Role Caps Weekly Value

Harris continues to carve out a minor rotational role in the Giants' backfield alongside Cam Skattebo and Devin Singletary, most recently converting a two-point conversion. After signing with New York following his recovery from an Achilles tear, he has logged 14 carries over his last two games, though his efficiency has dipped to 2.8 yards per carry.

Heading into a balanced home matchup against New Orleans, our projections peg Harris for roughly 10 carries and 40 rushing yards, yielding about 6 fantasy points. With virtually no passing-down involvement and started in only 2% of fantasy leagues, he remains heavily touchdown-dependent and is best left on fantasy benches.
