Harris (ankle) returned to practice Thursday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harris didn't practice Wednesday, but head coach Mike Tomlin downplayed the running back's absence, a notion supported by Harris' presence at Thursday's session. Per Saunders, Harris looked "just fine running the ball" during practice, though it won't be known if he was a full or limited practice participant until after the session concludes.

Harris (ankle) didn't practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though Harris missed Wednesday's session, head coach Mike Tomlin downplayed the running back's absence, indicating that Harris is among the players he anticipates including in the team's "planning at the latter part of the week," with an eye toward readying him to be ready for Sunday's game against the Ravens. However, Harris will presumably need to practice fully by Friday in order to head into the weekend without a Week 11 injury designation.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Harris could be limited in practice this week due to an ankle injury, but the running back is expected to play Sunday against the Ravens, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harris is banged up coming out of a 28-27 win over the Commanders this past Sunday, when he matched his season high with 21 carries and gained 53 yards while scoring a touchdown. The Steelers are seemingly planning on taking it easy with Harris coming off the big workload, but assuming he puts in a full practice by Friday, he'll likely approach the matchup with Baltimore without an injury designation.

Harris rushed the ball 21 times for 53 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 28-27 win over the Commanders. He was not targeted.
EDGE Analysis
Harris entered Sunday in the midst of one of the most productive stretches of his career by topping 100 yards in three consecutive games. He didn't continue that streak and was inefficient overall, but there were still some positive takeaways from his performance in Week 10. He led the Steelers' backfield, recording 21 touches as compared to 16 for Jaylen Warren. Harris also scored his third touchdown in his last four games with a one-yard touchdown midway through the third quarter. It's also worth noting that Harris briefly left the game in the fourth quarter with an apparent ankle injury, though he did return on Pittsburgh's game-winning drive.

Harris carried the ball 19 times for 114 yards while catching three of four targets for 17 yards in Monday's 26-18 win over the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Harris shined in the national spotlight for the second consecutive week after churning out another 100-plus yard rushing performance against a New York squad. The addition of quarterback Russell Wilson has helped add the threat of the deep ball to Pittsburgh's offense, lightening opposing defensive boxes for the 6-foot-1, 242-pound Harris. The bruising back took full advantage of that against the Giants and may continue to do so in the second half of the fantasy season. For now, the Steelers enter a bye week, so fantasy managers will have to find a substitute for Harris in Week 9, before reactivating the back for a Week 10 matchup against Washington.

Harris rushed 21 times for 102 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-15 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Harris failed to bring in his only target in Sunday's lopsided victory, but that's where the bad news ends following the running back's second consecutive 100-yard rushing game. The 26-year-old also cashed in his second touchdown in as many weeks following a slow start to the campaign. Harris and the Steelers remain at home to host another New York team when the Giants come to town for Monday Night Football in Week 8.

Harris (ribs) was a full practice participant Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The immediate return to full participation suggests Harris' absence Wednesday was largely a matter of caution. He'll fill his usual lead role in Pittsburgh's backfield this Sunday against the Jets, with Jaylen Warren in reserve and Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) still unable to practice.

Harris (ribs) was present for practice Thursday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harris was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's session due to a rib issue, but his return to the field Thursday has him on track to be available Sunday night against the Jets. The Steelers' upcoming injury report will confirm whether or not Harris worked fully in his return to practice.

Harris (ribs) didn't practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com, Harris usually rests Wednesday, but the running back's absence this time around was attributed to a rib issue. Thursday's practice thus is slated to provide added context with regard to Harris' status for Sunday's game against the Jets. Meanwhile, fellow RB Jaylen Warren is not listed on the Steelers' Week 7 injury report.

Harris rushed the ball 14 times for 106 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 win over the Raiders. He added two receptions on two targets for 16 yards.
EDGE Analysis
Amid some concern that he would lose work to Jaylen Warren, Harris instead turned in his best performance of the season by nearly any measure. He turned in more than 100 yards on the ground for the first time in the campaign, and he also did so efficiently with two rushes of more than 20 yards. To top things off, Harris also found the end zone for the first time this season with a 36-yard rush late in the third quarter. He's seen his opportunity limited to some extent in recent weeks, though he has at least 15 total touches in every game this season.
