Najee Harris (oblique) held out again Thursday for Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (oblique) did not practice on Thursday.
What It Means:
Harris has missed back-to-back practices after injuring his oblique on Monday night, making it unlikely that he will be available for Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons. Jaylen Warren, who missed Monday's game with a hamstring injury, was a full participant Thursday for a second straight day. He will likely lead the Steelers' backfield versus the Falcons if Harris is unavailable, but Benny Snell would also be involved.
numberFire's models project Harris for 17.6 touches and 78.0 yards in Week 13 at a full workload. The Falcons have the sixth-worst run defense in our adjusted metrics, so it's an advantageous matchup for the entire Steelers' backfield.
