  • Inactive Sunday

    Harty (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

    Analysis: Harty is the odd man out Sunday, with Andy Isabella active after having been elevated from the team's practice squad. Also in the Bills' WR mix versus Philadelphia are Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis, Khalil Shakir and Trent Sherfield.

  • Takes back seat to Shakir

    Harty was not targeted in the passing game and saw action on just six offensive snaps in Thursday's 24-18 win over Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, Harty's teammate Khalil Shakir had a banner day with six catches for 92 yards. Shakir saw action on 45 offensive snaps, making him the clear No. 3 receiver in the offense, while fellow depth receiver Trent Sherfield saw action on 21 offensive snaps. Harty did find the end zone once in Week 6, but he hasn't had more than three catches or four targets in any game this season, keeping him in a reserve role and unusable in fantasy leagues. Harty is at least serving as the team's main…read more

  • Scores in tight win

    Harty caught his only target for a three-yard touchdown in Sunday night's 14-9 win over the Giants.

    Analysis: While Harty did get his first touchdown of the season and his first as a Bill, the wideout still saw action on only 15 percent of the team's offensive snaps. Khalil Shakir, Trent Sherfield and Harty have split depth snaps at wideout, but all three have just bit roles in the offense as rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid (concussion) has also been used frequently out of the slot. Harty has only one game with more than 15 receiving yards this season.

  • Two catches in loss

    Harty secured both of his targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Harty operated as the Bills' No. 4 receiver Sunday, playing 15 of Buffalo's 60 offensive snaps. The majority of the veteran wideout's production came on a 43-yard reception late in the fourth quarter that helped to spark a scoring drive. With such limited usage on offense, Harty remains difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production unless there's an injury to Stefon Diggs or Gabe Davis. Next up for the Bills is a matchup against the Giants in Week 6.

  • Two grabs in win

    Harty secured both of his targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Harty had a quiet day against the Dolphins on Sunday, playing just 15 of the Bills' 58 offensive snaps. The veteran wideout saw the fewest snaps of any Bills' receiver, playing behind Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis, Trent Sherfield and Khalil Shakir. Despite him being in a high-powered offense, Harty's 21 percent snap share average is limiting his opportunities to be a consistent contributor in Buffalo. Buried on the depth chart, the 25-year-old should remain off the fantasy radar, barring injuries…read more

  • Quiet in win

    Harty secured two of his three targets for 15 yards and carried the ball two times for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 37-3 win over the Commanders.

    Analysis: Harty added 27 yards on punt returns in the contest. The veteran wideout played 13 offensive snaps Sunday, the fewest of any Bills wide receiver. In his limited opportunities, Harty was unable to have much of an impact on the game from a production standpoint. As a member of a crowded group of pass catchers in Buffalo, the 27-year-old remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. Harty will look to be more involved on offense when the Bills host the Dolphins in Week 3.

  • Seeing few snaps, but big usage

    Harty recorded two catches for four yards on three targets in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Though he's played less than a quarter of the Bills' snaps on offense in both of the first two games and ranked behind Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis and Trent Sherfield in playing time Week 2, Harty has been consistently involved when on the field. Playing a role similar to the one the undersized Isaiah McKenzie held for Buffalo in the past, the 5-foot-6, 170-pound Harty has been targeted on seven of the 22 routes (31.8 percent) he's run and has carried the ball once on the five nonpassing downs…read more

  • Locks down roster spot

    Harty has secured a spot on Buffalo's initial 53-man roster.

    Analysis: Harty will start the season as Buffalo's top option in the return game while also handling a depth role on offense. He could see increased opportunities early in the season until Justin Shorter (hamstring) returns from IR, leaving him a chance to compete with Khalil Shakir for No. 3 reps behind Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis. Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports that Harty and Shakir should both handle snaps out of the slot when Diggs doesn't line up there.

  • Decent chance at roster spot

    Special teams coach Matthew Smiley mentioned Harty and Khalil Shakir this week as top options to replace Nyheim Hines (knee) as the team's primary return man this season, Patrick Warren of the Bills' official site reports. "Deonte had a lot of success in New Orleans on punt return, especially earlier in his career," Smiley said. "I think that it's always nice that somebody has NFL reps so his comfort level at that position is definitely a benefit."

    Analysis: Harty, a free-agent signee, returned both punts and kickoffs in his four-year tenure with the Saints. The Bills also don't have a clear-cut slot receiver and may use kind of a committee at that spot, another angle for Harty to secure a roster spot. Given how the Bills planned on using the versatile Hines before his season-ending knee injury stemming from a jet ski accident, it may now be difficult for a jack-of-all-trades type like Harty, though it's worth noting the Bills did bring in Andy…read more

  • Clear for full offseason

    Harty, who signed as a free agent with the Bills on Wednesday, says the toe injury that limited him to just four games in 2022 has fully healed. "I was cleared a while ago," Harty said after his signing. "I'm back to doing everything. I'm back to feeling like my normal self. So, I'm good to go."

    Analysis: The former Saint is set to serve as a depth receiver and return man for the Bills in 2023. Buffalo is fairly crowded on offense, but Harty likely received a boost in status Friday when the Bills cut Isaiah McKenzie, a player with a similar skill set.

  • Heading to Buffalo

    Harty (foot) and the Bills reached agreement Wednesday on a two-year contract worth up to $13.5 million, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: According to Buscaglia, Harty's deal includes $5 million fully guaranteed and $9.5 million in base salary. Harty spent the first four years of his career with the Saints, serving as a depth receiver and return specialist over four games in 2022 before being shut down for the season with foot injury. Over the games he played last season, Harty recorded two catches for 13 yards while compiling 137 kick-return yards. The 5-foot-6 athlete is unlikely to have a consistent impact on offense for the…read more

  • Placed on IR

    The Saints placed Harty (foot) on injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: The fourth-year receiver typically hasn't been a major part of the Saints' offensive game plan during his time in the NFL, but his absence for at least Sunday's matchup with the Bengals will loom larger than normal with each of New Orleans' top three receivers -- Michael Thomas (foot), Chris Olave (concussion) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) either ruled out for the contest or considered unlikely to play. Harty, who had recorded two receptions for 13 yards while also handling return duties in four of…read more

  • Out with foot injury

    Harty (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harty's foot injury robs him of the chance to take advantage of both Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) being out of the lineup. It's a tough situation for the Saints, especially with another game coming up Thursday against Arizona in Week 7.

  • Still not practicing

    Harty (foot) was a non-participant at practice Thursday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Harty's inability to practice so far this week does not bode well for his status come Sunday against the Bengals. Considering the initial report of his turf toe injury by Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football relayed he was expected to miss time and that there was fear of significant injury, a Harty absence in Week 6 wouldn't come as a surprise.

  • Sidelined in practice Wednesday

    Harty (foot) did not participate during the Saints' practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Harty is expected to miss some time after suffering what is feared to be a significant turf toe injury during Sunday's win over the Seahawks. The 25-year-old has served as New Orleans' primary returner for both punts and kickoffs when healthy this season, so his likely absence should lead to more special-teams usage for fellow wideout Marquez Callaway.

  • Dealing with turf toe

    Harty suffered a turf toe injury in Sunday's Week 5 win over the Seahawks, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Harty is expected to miss extended time after suffering the injury. In his absence, Marquez Callaway and Taysom Hill could get more involved in the return game.

  • Questionable to return

    Harty (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Analysis: Harty did not record a catch before exiting during the first half against Seattle. The 24-year-old was previously limited with a foot injury after sitting out Week 3, but he was able to return heading into last Sunday's loss to the Vikings. With Harty sidelined, Marquez Callaway figures to step in as New Orleans' primary return specialist.

  • Slated to play Sunday

    Harty (foot) was a limited participant in Friday's practice session and doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Harty was limited for all three of the Saints' practice sessions this week, but he'll be able to play through his foot injury for Sunday's matchup in London. Over his first two appearances this season, he's secured both of his targets for 13 yards.

  • Limited again Thursday

    Harty (foot) was limited in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Harty is one of four wideouts on New Orleans' injury report, as Michael Thomas (foot) remains sidelined and Jarvis Landry (ankle) was limited Thursday. Meanwhile, Tre'Quan Smith (concussion) was a full participant. Harty will have one more opportunity to increase his activity level before Sunday's game against the Vikings.

  • Limited with foot injury

    Harty (foot) was limited at the Saints' practice Wednesday, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Harty is still nursing a foot injury heading into Week 4, operating as a limited participant at Wednesday's practice. With Michael Thomas (toe), Jarvis Landry (foot) and Tre'Quan Smith (concussion) also banged up, the Saints could be short-handed at wide receiver Sunday.

  • Inactive against Carolina

    Harty (coach's decision) will not play in Sunday's matchup against the Panthers.

    Analysis: With Harty a healthy scratch Sunday, fellow wideout and return specialist Marquez Callaway should take his place as the No. 4 receiver for the Saints.

  • Good to go for Week 3

    Harty (foot) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Panthers, Luke Johnson of the New Orleans Advocate reports.

    Analysis: Harty practiced fully Friday following a pair of limited sessions, shedding any doubt regarding his availability for Week 3. His impact comes primarily on special teams, as Harty returns both kickoffs and punts but sees limited usage on offense.

    Harty (foot) was limited at practice Wednesday.

    Analysis: Harty played 11 offensive snaps and caught his lone target for nine yards during Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay. He was the only wideout outside of the team's starting trio of Michael Thomas, Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry to record a catch, but he appears to have come away from the contest with a foot injury. Harty has been competing with Marquez Callaway for the No. 4 wideout spot while Tre'Quan Smith (shoulder) is sidelined, but Harty's potential absence would have a greater impact on New…read more

  • Notches second catch of 2022

    Harty caught his lone target for nine yards while playing 11 of his 22 snaps on offense during Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Harty was the only New Orleans wide receiver outside of the team's starting trio of Michael Thomas, Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry to record a catch during the game, hauling in quarterback Jameis Winston's final pass of the fourth quarter. However, the 24-year-old's largest impact came on special teams, as he tallied 65 yards on two kick returns while netting a six-yard loss on one punt return. Marquez Callaway did not record a target Sunday, and the duo will continue to compete for New Orleans'…read more

  • Sticking in New Orleans

    Harty signed his restricted free agent tender Thursday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayunereports.

    Analysis: Harty is set to make $4 million in 2022 while playing on the tender. Originally an undrafted free agent, Harty has made his mark primarily on special teams, as he picked up 690 kick return yards and 199 punt return yards in 2021. He also tallied a career-high 36 receptions to go along with 570 receiving yards and three touchdowns last season, though he now has more competition for targets, with Michael Thomas (ankle) on track to return to the mix, as well as the addition of Chris Olave in the…read more

  • Gets second-round tender

    The Saints are giving Harris a second-round tender, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: This all but assures the restricted free agent will stay with the Saints, as no team would give up a second-round pick for the right to sign him. Harris did have a career year in 2021 as the Saints' No. 3 receiver and return specialist, catching 36 of 59 targets for 570 yards and three touchdowns. Listed at 5-foot-6, 170 pounds, Harris likely will be the team's third or fourth receiver in 2022.

  • Tallies three receptions

    Harris recorded three receptions on four targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-20 win over the Falcons.

    Analysis: Harris finished second on the team in targets and receptions behind only Tre'Quan Smith. However, that translated into subpar production as the Saints took to the air only 24 times as opposed to 46 rushing attempts. Harris had an inconsistent season marred by a three-game suspension, time on the reserve/COVID-19 list and a hamstring injury. However, when on the field he emerged as a big-play threat by logging five receptions of 20 or more yards and four receptions that gained at least 40 yards.…read more

  • Two catches in return

    Harris caught two of two targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 18-10 win over Carolina.

    Analysis: Making his return from a three-game suspension, Harris finished third among Saints wide receivers in offensive snaps, despite the absence of Tre'Quan Smith (chest). While Harris still was able to do just as much damage as Lil'Jordan Humphrey (two catches for 28 yards), both of these receivers watched as Marquez Callaway brought in six of 10 targets for 97 yards. However, it's possible that Harris' mid-week stint on the COVID-19 list impacted his playing time. If so, Harris could be in store for…read more

  • Removed from COVID-19 list

    Harris (illness) was removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Harris spent time on the COVID-19 list during the third and final week of his league-imposed suspension, but if he checks out fine from a conditioning standpoint, he could step into a big role this Sunday against Carolina. Starting wideout Tre'Quan Smith (chest) has been ruled out already, with backups Lil'Jordan Humphrey (illness) and Ty Montgomery (back) listed as questionable. Still, there's not a ton of upside for the Saints' passing game with Taysom Hill at quarterback.

  • Suspension over

    Harris' suspension was lifted Tuesday, but he remains on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Harris found himself on the COVID-19 list Sunday, just one day before he was set to fulfill his three-game ban for violating the NFL's policy and program for substances of abuse. If he clears amended league protocols in time to play Week 17 against the Panthers, he'd join Marquez Callaway, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and potentially Tre'Quan Smith (chest) as the primary wide receivers for whoever happens to be available at quarterback for the Saints.

  • Moves to COVID-19 list

    The Saints placed Harris (suspension) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: Harris has one game to go on his three-game suspension, which will be served once the Saints play Monday against the Dolphins. Once the ban is lifted Tuesday, though, he'll already be on a different reserve list, with his return to the team subject to COVID-19 protocols. If Harris is able to at some point in the next week, he'll be eligible to play next Sunday versus the Panthers.

  • Loses appeal, faces three-game ban

    The NFL announced that Harris' three-game suspension was upheld following his appeal and will go into effect beginning with the Saints' Week 14 game Sunday against the Jets, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Harris was handed the suspension in late November following his July arrest on a DWI charge, but he was able to play in the Saints' past two games while waiting for his appeal to be heard. An already shallow New Orleans pass-catching group will now become even weaker with the loss of Harris, who leads the team with 523 receiving yards and ranks second with 31 receptions through his 11 appearances. He'll be eligible to rejoin the lineup for the Saints' Week 17 game against the Dolphins on Jan.…read more

  • Scores long receiving TD

    Harris secured four of eight targets for 96 yards and a touchdown, rushed once for three yards and returned four punts for 37 yards in the Saints' 27-17 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday night.

    Analysis: The speedster put the icing on his fantasy performance with a 70-yard touchdown reception late in the fourth quarter that turned out to be meaningless to the game's outcome but certainly propped up his final tally significantly. Harris' score was his third of the season and first since Week 5, and his yardage total both paced the Saints and qualified as a career high. If the 23-year-old is successful in his appeal of a three-game ban for violation of the league's policy and program for…read more

  • Appealing three-game ban

    Harris was handed a three-game suspension for violating the NFL's policy and program for substances of abuse, and he's opted to appeal the ban, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Harris was able to play Thursday against the Bills due to the appeal, catching one of five targets for nine yards and returning four kickoffs for 61 yards and one punt for 12 yards. The 23-year-old will remain eligible to play until a decision is made on his appeal.

  • Does little with five targets

    Harris caught two of five targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 40-29 loss to Philadelphia.

    Analysis: Harris again ran as the No. 3 receiver behind Tre'Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway. The Saints tried to hit him deep on more than one occasion, but the absence of the New Orleans' starting left and right tackles made it hard for some passing plays to develop. While it's possible he could break one loose in any given game -- like he did in Week 1 and Week 5 -- Harris will remain a dart throw in most fantasy formats entering a Week 12 matchup with Buffalo.

  • Works as deep threat

    Harris recorded three receptions on four targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Harris saw his role dip, as he entered the game having commanded at least seven targets in three of his last four games. Even so, he made the most of his opportunity by recording receptions of 46, 21 and 17 yards to post his best yardage total in a contest this season. Harris has now managed nine receptions for 136 yards across two games with Trevor Siemian as the starting quarterback heading into a Week 11 matchup against the Eagles.

  • Season-high six receptions

    Harris caught six of eight targets for 52 yards during Sunday's 27-25 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Harris easily seemed like the team's most explosive pass catcher not named Alvin Kamara. In fact, Harris was targeted on nearly 35 percent of his offensive snaps and ultimately led the team in targets and receptions, despite seeing significantly less playing time than both Tre'Quan Smith (80 percent) and Marquez Callaway (79 percent). While it's concerning that Harris may need a high usage rate to make his low snap counts pay off in fantasy lineups, he's now seen 15 targets over the past two…read more

  • Totals 57 yards

    Harris caught three of seven targets for 35 yards while rushing once for 22 yards during Sunday's 36-27 win over Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: Despite entering the game with a questionable tag, Harris led the team in targets and trailed only Alvin Kamara in yards from scrimmage. However, he wasn't able to do much with his opportunities in the passing game, and this is only the second time in six games in which Harris has seen more than three targets. The impending return of Michael Thomas (ankle) won't help his consistency in that area, and the possible extended absence of Jameis Winston (knee) would almost certainly be a detriment to…read more

  • Active in Week 8

    Harris (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The speedster will make his first appearance since Week 5 after overcoming a hamstring issue. Harris returns to what is projected to be a No. 3 receiver role, as Tre'Quan Smith came off injured reserve during his absence and will operate as the No. 2 wideout alongside Marquez Callaway against Tampa Bay.

  • Questionable after limited practice

    Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Harris missed practice Wednesday but was able to log limited sessions Thursday and Friday, giving himself a chance to suit up Sunday. With Tre'Quan Smith returning to the fold last week after previously dealing with a hamstring injury of his own, Harris will likely be relegated to No. 3 on the Saints' depth chart, but the diminutive wide receiver should continue to work as the team's primary option in the return game if he's able to suit up.

  • Limited practice Thursday

    Harris (hamstring) returned to practice Thursday, logging a limited effort.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old hadn't practiced since suffering a hamstring injury in Week 5 versus Washington, so his limited participation is a good sign for his chances to play in Week 8 against the Buccaneers. Harris has 12 catches for 236 yards and two touchdowns this season, on top of operating as the Saints' kick and punt returner.

    Harris (hamstring) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Since hurting his hamstring Week 5 in Washington, Harris hasn't been able to practice in any capacity. Until he does, he'll be a tough sell to be available for game action. Still, Harris has two more sessions to make a case for a return Sunday against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Despite coming off a Week 6 bye, Harris still appears bothered by the hamstring injury that knocked him out of the Saints' Oct. 10 win over Washington in Week 5. Through five games, Harris is the Saints' surprise leader in receiving with 236 yards and two touchdowns on 12 catches.

    Analysis: After seeing seven targets over the first three weeks of the season, Harris topped that number Sunday while no other Saints pass catcher saw more than three. However, this usage is more likely to be an outlier for Harris than any sign that he's assuming a larger role in the offense.

  • Three targets in win

    Harris caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: The three receptions and 31 yards both represented season highs for the Saints' starting wideout, which shows how infrequent this offense chooses to throw the football. Harris hasn't been able to produce much from a fantasy perspective outside of a big-play touchdown back in Week 1, so it's tough to trust him on a weekly basis. We will see if the Saints decide to open up their offense in a favorable matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

    Harris caught one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 26-7 loss to Carolina.

    Analysis: Harris again saw a couple of targets while playing on a little less than half of the offensive snaps, but this time he was unable to get loose for a long gain. The 5-foot-6 receiver likely will remain a touchdown-dependent fantasy option Week 3 when New Orleans travels to New England.

    Analysis: Harris didn't have many pass-catching opportunities on a day the Saints only needed to throw 20 times. However, the speedster cleanly beat Green Bay cornerback Kevin King on both of his targets while doing the majority of his damage on a 55-yard touchdown from Jameis Winston in the fourth quarter. With Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring) having no chance of returning over the next two weeks, Harris should maintain his sizable role in the Saints offense when New Orleans travels…read more

    Harris has not yet received a suspension or other punishment from the NFL following his July 16 arrest for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Analysis: While such issues commonly lead to a two-game suspension, Harris presumably won't receive any punishment until after the legal process has played out, which doesn't appear to be happening anytime soon. In the meantime, Harris is slated for a significant role at receiver while Michael Thomas (ankle) misses at least the first six weeks of the season on the PUP list.

    Analysis: Underhill mentioned that a DUI arrest often leads to a two-game suspension, though not until the legal process has played out. Harris should be available Week 1 for a Saints team that will be missing Michael Thomas (ankle), but it is possible the 5-foot-6 wide receiver is suspended later in the season or next year.

    Analysis: Rather than mainly compete with Marquez Callaway for the No. 3 job behind Thomas and Tre'Quan Smith, Harris could spend training camp preparing for a starting role after flashing numerous times as a rotational player over the past two years. Should he succeed in that feat and subsequently perform well as a starter in the regular season, it's possible that Harris then may gain an edge over Callaway for playing time once Thomas returns to the field.

He aggravated a neck injury in that last game but now appears to have returned healthy for the offseason program.

    Harris (neck) finished the 2020 regular season with 20 receptions for 186 yards and a touchdown and added six carries for 51 yards.

    Analysis: Harris saw some increased run with injuries in New Orleans' receiving corps, though injuries of his own forced him to miss seven games, not to mention a neck injury forced him out of the Saints' playoff loss to Tampa Bay. Prior to that, he went 7-83-0 in the wild-card round against Chicago.

  • Hurts neck against Bucs

    Harris (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Larry Holder of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Harris made a major impact in the return game before suffering the injury, gaining 54 yards on his first punt return to set up a field goal and having a would-be touchdown called back due to a penalty on his second punt return. He wasn't much of a factor on offense in the regular season but led the Saints in catches and receiving yards in the wild-card round, so Harris will be missed in multiple phases of the game if he's unable to return.

    Harris caught all seven of his targets for 83 yards in the Saints' 21-9 win over the Bears on Sunday.

    Analysis: After being activated from injured reserve Saturday, Harris wasted no time getting back into action for the Saints, as he paced the team in receptions and receiving yards while tying for team lead in targets. His regular-season highs in receptions and receiving yards came in Week 7 with a 4-46-1 performance, so this was easily his best showing of the campaign. Harris will look to keep the momentum rolling in the NFC divisional round when the Saints host the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Harris hasn't practiced all week, so he seems more likely to sit out than suit up for this one. With Marquez Callaway (knee) ruled out, the Saints will likely search deep down their depth chart for options in the return game should Harris sit. Taysom Hill and Alvin Kamara are both capable of filling such roles, but the team is unlikely to risk injury to its current starting quarterback or running back by subjecting them to unnecessary hits on special teams.

He caught a short pass, lowered his shoulder, shook off two defenders and streaked down the sideline to pick up a huge chunk gain.

The 5-foot-6 Harris may still be largely limited to slot work, but he had his best game of the season last week (4-46-1 receiving line) and could see a handful or so of targets again.

    Analysis: Harris was set for more opportunity than usual with both Michael Thomas (hamstring/ankle) and Emmanuel Sanders (illness) out of action, and he delivered a four-yard scoring grab just before halftime. The second-year speedster set a season high in both receptions and receiving yards, and with Thomas, Sanders and Marquez Calloway (leg) all in danger of missing a Week 8 battle against the Bears, Harris could be in for an expanded role once again.

    Harris hauled in two of his three targets for five receiving yards during Sunday's 37-30 loss to Green Bay. He also registered 78 return yards on his three kickoff returns, as well as 14 yards on his lone punt return.

    Analysis: The All-Pro returner showed a glimmer of fantasy relevance in Week 2 against the Raiders, gaining 34 scrimmage yards on a combined four offensive touches as he logged the second start of his career. Week 3 marked a step back for his offensive role, as Tre'Quan Smith collected six-plus targets for a second consecutive game. If Michael Thomas (ankle) is able to return in Week 4 against Detroit, it would diminish Harris' offensive role further in a matchup against the NFL's 13th-ranked pass…read more

  • Hauls in three passes

    Harris brought in three of five targets for 23 yards and added an 11-yard carry in the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on Monday.

    Analysis: With Michael Thomas out of action, Harris saw an increase in targets and actually finished ahead of Emmanuel Sanders in looks from Drew Brees. It's clear that Alvin Kamara will be Brees' first read on the majority of passing plays, but Harris has some appeal in deeper leagues for as long as Thomas is out.

  • Goes for 17 yards in victory

    Harris brought in his only reception for 17 yards and added a nine-yard rush in Sunday's 34-23 win over the Saints.

    Analysis: Harris surprisingly tied with Michael Thomas in yards and finished with more than Emmanuel Sanders in Sunday's loss. Harris saw only one target, however, and he won't often find himself among the team leaders in receiving yards. He also returned four punts for 59 yards and will likely do most of his damage on special teams this season.

  • Lifted from COVID list

    The Saints activated Harris from the reserve/COVID-19 list Sunday, Albert Breer of TheMMQB.com reports.

    Analysis: Harris was placed on the list Friday and quickly cleared the necessary protocols to return to team activities. The 22-year-old receiver likely won't make major contributions on offense this season, but he's poised to seize the top kick and punt returner jobs again this year.

  • Placed on reserve/COVID list

    Harris was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: It is unclear if Harris himself tested positive or was near someone who did. The distinction between the two will determine when he is allowed to rejoin the team, but that information for now will remain with the Saints. The second-year pass catcher recorded just six receptions for 24 yards during his rookie campaign, but he did haul in his lone target for 50 yards during New Orleans' 26-20 overtime wild-card loss to the Vikings.

  • Nabs 50-yard pass in loss

    Harris brought in his lone target for 50 yards in the Saints' 26-20 overtime wild-card loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Analysis: The fleet-footed rookie recorded his longest catch on the year, hauling in a 50-yarder from Taysom Hill in Sunday's loss. He ended his first NFL season with just six receptions for 24 yards, though he played a key role on special teams, scoring a punt-return touchdown in Week 3 against Seattle.

  • Makes catch in victory

    Harris caught his lone target for a one-yard gain in Monday night's 34-7 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Harris played nine snaps on offense, one more than he saw on special teams. While the rookie has not made a major impact yet in his young career, he can take solace in the fact that he's caught every one of his five targets on the season.

  • Active Thursday

    Harris (hamstring) is active for Thursday night's game against the Falcons, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harris returns after a two-game absence. It is not certain if he will slide immediately back into his regular return role after turning in only limited practices during the week.

  • Questionable for Thursday

    Harris (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's contest against the Falcons, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harris logged a trio of limited practices this week. If he were forced to miss any time, Taysom Hill and Alvin Kamara would take over fielding kick and punt returns, respectively.

  • Limited Tuesday

    Harris was limited in Tuesday's practice, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harris has been credited with two straight limited practices this week in what is a good sign for his availability for Thursday. On the other hand, he has already missed two games with the issue and is looking at a third if he can't ramp up his participation level Wednesday.

  • Estimated as limited participant

    Harris (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harris hasn't practiced over the last two weeks and missed those respective games, so the fact he was expected to practice Monday indicates at least some progress. The 21-year-old likely would go back to returning kicks if he can play Thursday, but there should be a better idea of his status after the next two days of practice.

  • Out for Week 12

    Harris (hamstring) has been declared out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

    Analysis: Harris was unable to practice at all during the week and will be forced to sit out a second consecutive game. Taysom Hill and Ted Ginn should fill in returning kicks.

  • Won't play Week 11

    Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Harris was unable to practice this week and will miss his first game of the season. The 21-year-old has three grabs for 10 yards on the season but typically makes his biggest impact as a kick and punt returner.

  • Misses practice again

    Harris (hamstring) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Two straight missed practices due to a leg injury is never a good sign for a returner. Harris will need to put in at least limited work Friday in order to be considered a better bet to play.

  • Can't practice Wednesday

    Harris (hamstring) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Harris is a new name on the injury report, as he's suited up all nine games so far. The undrafted rookie rarely takes the field on offense, but he's made quite an impact as a returner with 23.8 yards per kick return and 9.7 yards per punt return, ranking seventh and fifth in the league, respectively. Taysom Hill, Alvin Kamara and Ted Ginn could fill those duties if Harris is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.
