2022 Fantasy Football Forecast: Damien Harris Being Overlooked The Patriots running back, heading into a contract year, is being ignored in fantasy drafts.
Set to reprise key role As training camp approaches, Harris appears poised to reprise his key role in the Patriots backfield, Paul Perillo of the team's official site reports.
Impact Also in the mix for New England's early-down carries is 2021 fourth-rounder Rhamondre Stevenson, while the team hopes that veteran James White is able to move past a significant hip injury and reclaim his previous change-of-pace role. Meanwhile, third-year player J.J. Taylor and the versatile Ty Montgomery will compete with rookie draftees Pierre Strong (fourth round) and Kevin Harris (sixth round) for complementary work in this backfield. While the depth of New England's RB corps is an asset to the team, week-to-week production among the backs who suit up figures to depend on matchups or who has the hot hand. In that context, the fantasy upside of the incumbent Harris, who is heading into the final year of his rookie deal, likely hinges on the 25-year-old remaining the Pats' preferred option around the goal line.

Scripted out of playoff loss Harris rushed the ball nine times for 30 yards in Saturday's 47-17 loss to Buffalo. He added one reception for seven yards.
Impact In line with the rest of the Patriots' offense, Harris struggled to produce in New England's blowout loss to Buffalo in the wild-card round. He handled the majority of the work out of the backfield while the game was competitive, though the team was forced to largely abandon the run game after falling behind 27-0 by halftime. Even in his limited opportunity, Harris struggled to only 3.3 yards per carry despite a long 14-yard gain early in the third quarter. Harris ended the regular season with a career-high 929 yards and 15 touchdowns, and he should enter the 2022 campaign as New England's primary rusher once again.

Suiting up Saturday Harris (hamstring) is listed as active for Saturday night's game against the Bills.
Impact Harris was limited at practice this past week as he continues to manage a hamstring issue, but he's available to head the Patriots' rushing attack in the team's playoff opener, with Rhamondre Stevenson in line to see a portion of New England's early down work and Brandon Bolden on hand to work in a change-of-pace role. In 15 regular-season games, Harris logged 202 carries for 929 yards and 15 TDs while adding 18 catches for 132 yards. He'll continue to see his share of work Saturday in chilly conditions against a Buffalo defense that has allowed an average of 109.8 rushing yards per game to date.

Listed as questionable Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's playoff game against the Bills after practicing in a limited fashion this week, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Impact The Patriots list 13 players as questionable for the contest, but of that group we suspect that Harris is among those who are closer to the 'probable' designation once utilized on NFL injury reports. To be safe, those considering Harris in fantasy lineups this weekend are advised to confirm his status ahead of Saturday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, but assuming he's active he'll be in line to head the team's rushing attack versus Buffalo, with Rhamondre Stevenson on hand to see a portion of the team's early down work and Brandon Bolden available as a change-of-pace option.

Remains limited at practice Harris (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday.
Impact Haris could be limited again Thursday and listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's playoff opener against the Bills, but there's been nothing to suggest that the running back will sit out the game. Assuming Harris is active, Rhamondre Stevenson would also be in line to see a portion of the team's early-down work, while Brandon Bolden would handle change-of-pace snaps.
