  • Finds end zone as leading rusher

    Harris (chest/ankle) rushed 11 times for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Houston. He added an 11-yard catch on two targets.

    Analysis: Harris got the scoring started with a nine-yard rushing touchdown and finished with team highs in carries and rushing yards. He has been entrusted with 10-plus carries in five consecutive games, totaling 395 rushing yards on 73 carries (5.4 YPC) over that stretch. Harris has been a non-factor in the passing game, though, with just three catches all season. Sony Michel's (quad) impending return could cut into Harris' rushing workload in Week 12 against Arizona and beyond, though that drop could…read more

  • Suits up Sunday

    Harris (chest/ankle) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Assuming no in-game setbacks, Harris, who carried 22 times for 121 yards in the Patriots' Week 10 win over the Ravens, should continue to lead New England's backfield, which also includes Rex Burkhead and James White, with Sony Michel (quadriceps) inactive. Though Harris isn't really a factor in the passing game, he should see his share of touches Sunday, as New England seems likely run plenty versus a defense that ranks last in the league in both rushing yards allowed per game (167.4) and…read more

  • Expected to play

    Harris (chest/ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, is expected to play, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Harris' status will be confirmed prior to the first wave of games Sunday, with the Patriots kicking off at 1 p.m. ET. Assuming he suits up, the 2019 third-round pick -- who carried 22 times for 121 yards in the team's Week 10 win over the Ravens -- should continue to head New England's backfield, which also includes Rex Burkhead and James White. The potential reintroduction of Sony Michel (quadriceps) to the mix may well cut into Harris' volume to some extent, but working in the favor of all…read more

  • Listed as questionable for Week 11

    Harris (chest/ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Doug Kyed of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris is one of 15 Patriots players listed as questionable this week, be we suspect that he'll be a go for Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. Assuming that's the case, he's likely continue heading New England's ground game, even if the team elects to activate Sony Michel (quadriceps) from IR. In his last outing, Harris recorded season highs in both carries (22) and rushing yards (121) in a win over the Ravens.

  • Logs limited practice

    Harris (chest/ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris was limited at practice throughout last week before rushing 22 times for 121 yards in Sunday's win over the Ravens. With no reported setbacks in that contest, his limitations to begin Week 11 were probably maintenance-related. The Patriots have yet to decide whether Sony Michel (quadriceps) will be activated from injured reserve ahead of this weekend's game against the Texans, but with the way he's been running of late, Harris seems likely to continue headlining New England's ground…read more

  • Continues to roll in victory

    Harris (chest-ankle) rushed 22 times for 121 yards in Sunday's 23-17 win over Baltimore.

    Analysis: Harris carried a questionable tag heading into the Sunday Night Football affair, so fantasy owners who rolled the dice on the tailback were rewarded handsomely. The 2019 third-round pick set a new career high in carries (22) thanks to rainy and windy conditions at Foxborough, and he was a big reason why the Patriots were able to move the ball with ease against a stout Baltimore defense. Harris is only on the field for about a third of the Patriots' offensive snaps this season, but he touches…read more

  • Good to go Sunday

    Harris (chest/ankle) is listed as active for Sunday night's home game against the Ravens, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: With Sony Michel (quad) still on IR, the Patriots' other backfield options Sunday are the versatile Rex Burkhead and change-of-pace back James White, while rookie J.J. Taylor is a healthy scratch. Assuming no in-game setbacks, Harris -- who's averaging 5.6 yards per carry to date -- should lead the way in early-down situations, with Burkhead and White mixing in. Given Harris' limited involvement in the New England passing game, his path to fantasy relevance Week 10 is logging double-digit…read more

  • Hopes to play Sunday

    Harris (chest/ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens, is "hopeful to play," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Rapoport adds that Harris will be monitored closely in pre-game warmups as the Patriots look to ensure he experiences no setbacks before clearing him to suit up. With Sony Michel (quad) still on injured reserve, the Patriots' other backfield options are the versatile Rex Burkhead, change-of-pace back James White and rookie J.J. Taylor. Given that Sunday's game kicks off at 8:20 p.m. ET, there's an element of risk in counting on Harris -- who has emerged as New England's top early-down option --…read more

  • Questionable for Sunday night

    Harris (chest/ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Ravens after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris is one of 17 players listed as questionable by the Patriots, and while his practice participation all week -- albeit in a limited fashion -- offers encouragement, his status remains worth monitoring leading up to Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff. Per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, the running back, who left Monday night's win over the Jets with a chest injury, stopped short of saying he'd play Sunday night but did note that he's been working to that end over the past few days. If Harris is…read more

  • Remains limited Thursday

    Harris (chest/ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Back-to-back limited sessions suggest that Harris has a good shot to play Sunday night against the Ravens, but there's a decent chance he's one of a slew of players that the Patriots will officially list as questionable for the contest.

  • Limited at practice Wednesday

    Harris (chest/ankle) was listed as limited at practice Wednesday, Andrew Callahan of Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: Harris headed into Week 9 action managing the ankle issue, but it was the chest injury that ended up forcing him out of Monday's win over the Jets. That he was able to practice two days later -- even in a limited fashion -- is a decent sign, but if Harris is at less than 100 percent health heading into the weekend, the Patriots could choose to bring Sony Michel (quadriceps) back from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens.

  • Back at practice Wednesday

    Harris (chest) is present at Wednesday's practice, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris was forced out of Monday's win over the Jets due to the chest injury, so it's encouraging to see him in attendance for practice just two days later. The second-year running back is also scheduled to speak with the media Friday, which isn't standard procedure for injured players. That said, until the actual extent of Harris' practice activity is revealed, his status will need to be monitored heading into the Patriots' Week 10 game against Baltimore.

  • Rushing leader prior to injury

    Harris rushed 14 times for 71 yards prior to leaving Monday night's 30-27 win over the Jets with a chest injury suffered during the fourth quarter.

    Analysis: Harris did not return after taking a shot to the chest late in Monday's contest. Despite his early exit, Harris still led the Pats in rushing yards and attempts, but couldn't find the end zone even though New England scored three times on the ground. While Harris again didn't feature in the passing game either, his recent production still makes his injury situation important to monitor ahead of Week 10's matchup against the Ravens. If Harris is forced to sit, it could create an opening for Sony…read more

    Harris left Monday's game against the Jets in the fourth quarter with a chest injury, Michael Giardi of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Harris took a hard hit on a rushing attempt in the fourth quarter, and after slowly making his way off the field, he was spotted heading to the locker room. It's unclear at this time whether he'll be able to return.

    Harris is listed as active for Monday night's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: With Sony Michel (quad) not activated for the contest, Harris is in line to head the team's Week 9 rushing attack, with pass-catching ace James White and the versatile Rex Burkhead also in the mix. Harris logged 16 carries for 102 yards and a TD in the Patriots' Week 8 loss to the Bills, and Michel's continued absence helps extend Harris' fantasy lineup window.

    Analysis: Seventeen players from the Patriots were listed as questionable following the team's final injury report, so it's clear there's a bit of gamesmanship being played at the moment. Considering Harris was listed as a limited participant all week and no news surfaced about him possibly missing Monday's game, all indications seem to suggest the second-year back will be good to go. The team could still choose to activate Sony Michel (quad) off injured reserve in the next 48 hours; otherwise expect Rex…read more

    Harris (ankle) was limited at practice Thursday, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris is one of 12 players listed as limited by the Patriots and we suspect that his status for Monday night's game against the Jets is in no danger. The 2019 third-rounder carried 16 times for 102 yards and a TD in this past Sunday's loss to the Bills, but it's worth noting that Sony Michel (quad) has returned to practice and could come off IR as soon as this week. In such a scenario, he'd be an immediate threat to cut into Harris' early-down workload.

  • Leads offense in Week 8 loss

    Harris (ankle) rushed 16 times for 102 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to Buffalo. He wasn't targeted in the passing game.

    Analysis: Harris' 22-yard rushing score with 3:03 left in the third quarter got New England into the end zone for the first time, and the Patriots' ensuing two-point conversion tied the game at 14 apiece. New England ultimately came up just short on a costly Cam Newton fumble, but Harris was the only player to handle double-digit carries for the Patriots and has emerged as the team's leading backfield rushing option heading into a Week 9 date with the winless Jets.

  • Listed as active Sunday

    Harris (ankle) listed as active for Sunday's game against the Bills.

    Analysis: Considering the Patriots' injuries at wide receiver, as well as potentially rainy and windy weather conditions Sunday afternoon in the Buffalo area, Harris is a candidate to be busy in the absence of any setbacks. Also in the team's Week 8 backfield mix are pass-catching ace James White, versatile Rex Burkhead and rookie J.J. Taylor.

Confirmation of the running back's status will arrive when the Patriots reveal their inactives prior to Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. The team's injuries at wide receiver as well as potentially rainy and windy weather conditions on game day in the Buffalo area could well lead to New England employing a run-heavy attack in Week 8.

    Analysis: That said, Reiss adds that Harris -- despite his listed limitations -- says that he feels "fine" and doesn't give the impression that there's any doubt about his Week 8 status. That's a notion echoed by Zack Cox of NESN.com, who also suggests that Harris could see a heavy workload Sunday, considering the Patriots' injuries at wide receiver as well as potentially rainy and windy weather conditions on game day in the Buffalo area.

  • Still limited Thursday

    Harris (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Harris logged 21 of a possible 52 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 33-6 loss to the 49ers, en route to recording a team-high 10 carries for 58 yards and adding one catch for 12 yards. With back-to-back limited sessions in the book, there's a pretty solid chance that he'll end up officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bills.

  • Reps capped at practice

    Harris was limited at practice Wednesday due to an ankle injury, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris is one of eight New England players who was limited in the team's first Week 8 practice. At this stage, it's unclear if Harris' listed ankle issue is a carryover from Week 7 action or indicative of an in-practice setback. He was on the field for 21 of the Patriots' 52 offensive snaps in Sunday's 33-6 loss to the 49ers, carrying a team-high 10 times for 58 yards while catching one pass for 12 yards.

  • Effective in limited duty

    Harris carried 10 times for 58 yards and turned his only target into a 12-yard gain during Sunday's 33-6 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Harris gashed the San Francisco defense for 5.8 yards per carry and made a nice gain with his only reception, but his role was rather limited as his side went into the half down 20 points. Although it was a nice bounce-back effort after he managed just 19 yards on six carries against the Broncos a week ago, fantasy managers will likely be a bit disappointed with the limited usage.

  • Six carries in loss

    Harris rushed six times for 19 yards and caught his lone target for 14 yards in Sunday's 18-12 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: Harris got six carries to Rex Burkhead's five and James White's four, but Cam Newton (10 carries for 76 yards and a touchdown) outproduced the three running backs combined on the ground. Game script dictated a larger role for White, who finished with eight catches as the Patriots spent the entire game playing from behind. A more favorable game script should produce a larger role for Harris in Week 7 against the 49ers, but White and Burkhead will remain on hand to siphon off touches, even with…read more

    Analysis: The Patriots and the Broncos will both be on bye in Week 5 and are now tentatively scheduled to play Sunday, Oct. 18 in Week 6, which was originally a scheduled bye week for New England. Denver, meanwhile, had been in line to host the Dolphins, but Miami now looks poised to take its bye Week 6.

  • Hits century mark in loss

    Harris (finger) rushed 17 times for 100 yards in the Patriots' 26-10 loss to the Chiefs on Monday night.

    Analysis: Harris essentially was the lone bright spot for the Patriots in the double-digit loss, with his 41-yard run serving as a game-high figure. The 2019 third-round pick was making his season debut after being activated off injured reserve, and even though he gained a modest 59 yards on his other 16 carries, he was still the most effective runner of the night for New England. With Sony Michel (quadriceps) on injured reserve for the moment, Harris may have an extended opportunity to show what he can…read more

  • Activated from IR

    Harris (finger) has been activated from IR for Monday night's game against the Chiefs, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The move corresponds with Sony Michel (quad) going on IR, which sets that stage for Harris to enter the team's early down mix Week 4, joining fellow backs James White, Rex Burkhead and J.J. Taylor in a backfield that's crowded, even without Michel. Prior to injuring his finger, Harris had a strong training camp, and the 2019 third-rounder now will have a chance to be a key cog in the Patriots' rushing offense after seeing minimal usage as a rookie.

    The Patriots may still activate Harris (finger) for Week 4's potential matchup against the Chiefs, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.

    Analysis: News broke Saturday that players on both the Patriots and the Chiefs have tested positive for COVID-19, which led to the postponement of Sunday's game between the two teams. The league hopes it can fit in the game Monday or Tuesday. If the game had been played Sunday, the Patriots would've been required to activate Harris from IR by Saturday at 4 p.m. ET, but now they have until 4 p.m. ET on the day of the game, whether it's Monday or Tuesday.

    Analysis: Harris is eligible to return to action this week after missing the Patriots' first three games, but the team has until Saturday afternoon to make a call on his Week 4 status. Whether New England elects to activate Harris in advance of Sunday's game against the Chiefs could well hinge on whether it's felt that Sony Michel will be able to play through a quad injury that has him listed a questionable this week.

    Harris (finger) took part in practice Wednesday, indicating the Patriots have designated him to return from injured reserve, Andrew Callahan of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Analysis: With James White (personal) also rejoining the team, New England suddenly has quite the crowd in a backfield that received excellent Week 3 results from the trio of Rex Burkhead, Sony Michel and J.J. Taylor. It's not quite clear how Harris will fit in if he's ready to return for Sunday's game in Kansas City, but he generated some buzz back in training camp as a threat to challenge Michel for the lead ballcarrier role. Of course, Michel is averaging only 8.7 carries per game, in part because…read more

  • Set to miss at least three games

    Harris (finger) will be placed on IR and miss at least three games, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: In a corresponding move, J.J. Taylor will be promoted from the team's practice squad. Prior to suffering his finger injury, Harris had been pushing for a key early-season role. That's on hold for at least a few weeks, but Harris does figure to contribute once he's back. In the meantime, look for Sony Michel to head the Patriots' ground game out of the gate, with change-of-pace back James White and the versatile Rex Burkhead also in the mix.

  • Week 1 status uncertain

    Harris, who reportedly had surgery to repair his injured pinkie, is a candidate to be placed on the 2020 version of IR that allows players to return after three weeks, Karen Guregian of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: Such a move is hardly a lock, but it's an option for the team if it feels that Harris could benefit from a cautious approach, with Sony Michel, James White and Rex Burkhead healthy as Week 1 approaches. Harris' strong training camp has him poised to carve out a role -- when healthy -- in the Patriots' backfield after limited usage as a rookie. In any case, until or unless long-term injuries or roster moves thin out the team's running back depth chart, a committee approach seems likely, with…read more

  • Could miss Week 1

    Harris recently had surgery on his pinky finger, leaving his status in doubt for Week 1 against Miami, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: The report doesn't explicitly rule out Harris from the season opener, but it does say he'll need "a few weeks" to heal. ESPN.com's Mike Reiss confirms Harris is in danger of missing Week 1, following back-to-back absences from practice Monday and Tuesday. This could leave Sony Michel with a bigger workload against Miami, or it might open things up a bit for Rex Burkhead and/or Lamar Miller.

  • Misses back-to-back practices

    Harris was absent from practice Monday and Tuesday, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: While the Patriots haven't provided any information, back-to-back absences hint at some type of injury. Prior to the past couple days, Harris had been splitting first-team carries with Sony Michel, who returned from the PUP list last Wednesday. The New England backfield has been a consistent source of intrigue this summer, and it appears there's still much to be determined in the coming weeks. Harris still has 12 days to get healthy before a Week 1 matchup with the Dolphins.

    Harris' strong training camp has put him in a position to claim a key role in the Patriots' backfield to start the season, NESN's Zack Cox reports.

    Analysis: While Sony Michel (foot) was sidelined for a good chunk of time at the start of camp, the hard-running Harris performed well, putting himself in the conversation to potentially head the team's backfield committee early on this season. However, Michel is back practicing in full now and has reportedly looked "smooth and explosive." He'll now make a push to maintain his perch atop the team's depth chart. With the versatile Rex Burkhead, pass-catching specialist James White -- and eventually Lamar…read more

  • Long TD run at practice Thursday

    Harris broke off a long TD run on the first snap of Thursday's modified scrimmage, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

    Analysis: Per Callahan, the second-year back took advantage of a big hole on the left side of the line to engineer Thursday's long run. Meanwhile, Sony Michel -- who came of the PUP list Wednesday -- "looked light on his feet again." Now that Michel is back, he can work toward securing a key role in the Patriots' backfield, which he led last season, but given that Harris has been having a strong training camp, a timeshare between the two could be on tap, with the versatile Rex Burkhead, pass-catching…read more

  • Pushing for No. 1 job?

    Mike Reiss of ESPN.com believes that Harris has put himself in a good position to be "a primary option (in the Patriots' running game) alongside Rex Burkhead" to start the coming season.

    Analysis: Per Reiss, Harris' "fresh legs and soft hands in the passing game" have helped the second-year back take advantage of the continued absence of Sony Michel, whose Week 1 status is cloudy as he continues to recover from May foot surgery. If Michel isn't ready to start the season and Lamar Miller (knee) is unable to make a late push for early-down work once he joins practice, it's starting to look like Harris could have a chance to head the team's backfield in New England's opener, with the…read more

  • Looks comfortable catching passes

    Harris has shown some receiving ability at training camp, Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston reports.

    Analysis: With Sony Michel (foot) and Lamar Miller (knee) both absent from practice and uncertain for Week 1, there's a big opportunity for Harris -- a 2019 third-round pick -- to step up as the lead runner in New England. It'll still be James White getting most of the work on passing downs, but any development as a receiving threat could help Harris retain playing time even after Michel rejoins the lineup. The 2018 first-round pick has caught only 19 passes in 29 regular-season games, with the Patriots…read more

  • Looking at first-team reps

    With Sony Michel still rehabbing from foot surgery, Harris has a big opportunity ahead during training camp, Jeff Howe of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Even before Michel's foot surgery was reported, there was some thought Harris might challenge for the lead ballcarrier role this upcoming season. It's a nice opportunity for the 2019 third-round pick, but he's still facing the reality of a crowded backfield, one where James White, Rex Burkhead and Lamar Miller could also take first-team reps in the coming weeks.

  • Should see more work in 2020

    In his second season as a pro, Harris could pair well with lead back Sony Michel to give the Patriots "a potentially nice one-two combination" out of the team's backfield on early downs, ESPN's Mike Reiss reports.

    Analysis: Pass-catching ace James White is still around and will continue to see his share of targets, but Harris will undoubtedly see more opportunities in 2020 after logging just four carries in two games as a rookie. Versatile Rex Burkhead is also in the mix, at least for now, but after taking Harris in the third round of last year's draft, expect the Patriots to see what they have in the 5-foot-11, 213-pound Alabama product. For now, Harris is probably an injury (to a teammate) away from garnering…read more

  • Limited playing time as a rookie

    Harris logged four carries for 12 yards in two games this past season.

    Analysis: Per Jeff Howe of the Athletic, the 2019 third-rounder missed three games with a hamstring injury and was a healthy scratch 12 times. Harris' rookie season essentially amounted to a redshirt year and with Sony Michel, James White, Rex Burkhead and Brandon Bolden all under contract with the Patriots in 2020, the Alabama product doesn't have a clear path to abundant carries in his second season as a pro. That said, it's always possible that roster churn and/or future injuries could change that…read more

  • Sitting out Sunday

    Harris (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Harris was limited at practice all week, and he'll sit out a fourth straight game, although only two were attributed to this injury. The Patriots' backfield remains deep with Sony Michel, James White, Rex Burkhead and Brandon Bolden.

  • Questionable vs. Dallas

    Harris (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Harris was out for last week's win over the Eagles due to the hamstring issue and could miss his second straight game. The 22-year-old may be inactive regardless of his health given that the rest of the team's running backs are currently healthy.

  • Limited at practice

    Harris (hamstring) was limited at practice Wednesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris sat out Sunday's win over the Eagles after being added to the Patriots' injury report two days ahead of the game. Even if the rookie running back is deemed healthy enough to play this weekend, he could still sit out against the Cowboys as a healthy inactive.

  • Unavailable Week 11

    Harris (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Harris was originally considered questionable after suffering the injury at Friday's practice, but the team apparently didn't like what it saw Saturday. The 22-year-old was a candidate to be inactive if healthy, so his absence is unlikely to impact the offense.

  • Added to injury report Friday

    Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Harris was a candidate to be healthy scratch Sunday in any case, but given that he wasn't on the team's injury report earlier in the week, it appears he injured his hamstring injury during Friday's practice. Heading into Week 11, the rookie is off the fantasy radar, so long as the Patriots' backfield trio of Sony Michel, James White and Rex Burkhead remains healthy enough to play.
