NFL Week 11 Fantasy Football Running Backs: Sit 'Em

Najee Harris - Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Najee Harris has been one of the biggest disappointments during the 2022 Fantasy Football season. Despite being selected in the top five of many fantasy drafts, he currently ranks just 25th among running backs in total fantasy points this year.

Harris has also recently lost some of the backfield work for the Steelers to Jaylen Warren. His reduced workload and difficult matchups in Week 11 make him one to avoid in Fantasy Football. The Cincinnati Bengals rank among the top ten in limiting fantasy points to opposing running backs.

James Robinson - New York Jets vs. New England Patriots

James Robinson played out of a shared backfield with Travis Etienne for the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was recently traded to the New York Jets, where he will once again share a backfield, this time with Michael Carter.

Robinson and Carter will apparently split all of the touches moving forward, with Carter appearing to receive a slight advantage. This makes Robinson a risky running back option in Fantasy Football in Week 11. This is even more true against the New England Patriots. They allow the second-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs.

D'Andre Swift - Detroit Lions vs. New York Giants

D'Andre Swift has struggled to consistently produce during the 2022 Fantasy Football season. While part of the reason is due to injuries, he has also lost a large portion of backfield work to Jamaal Williams. Over the last three weeks, Williams has recorded 53 touches, while Swift has only received 22.

While Swift possesses weekly fantasy upside due to his dynamic skillset, he's become difficult to trust in the starting lineup. This was further complicated by his Week 11 matchup. The New York Giants allow the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs.
