It would be the second straight week of Warren being sidelined by the knee injury since he left the game early in Week 3 against the Chargers, while Patterson would be in line to miss his first game of the season should he ultimately be ruled out. That would free up a full backfield’s worth of touches for Najee Harris, who was hilariously inefficient in last week’s game against the Colts (19 rushing yards on 13 carries, 1.3 yards per carry). The Steelers haven’t exactly been lighting up the scoreboard by any measure through four games in 2024, but they’ll have a strong opportunity this week against a battered Cowboys defense that’s missing Micah Parsons, Demarcus Lawrence, and Daron Bland to get things moving on offense. Specifically, the matchup on the ground for Najee Harris is particularly intriguing, with the Cowboys allowing the third most fantasy points per game to running backs this season. Najee clearly isn’t up to the same caliber of running back that has gashed Dallas early this season (matchups against Alvin Kamara, and Derrick Henry might be inflating their numbers just a smidge), but with both of his primary sources of competition for touches potentially missing Week 5’s game, Harris is set up as well as he’s been in a long time to capitalize on a great matchup with a full workload.
