Week 10 Outlook
Availability
Maurice Harris (leg) was waived by the Patriots Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Harris picked up a lower-leg injury of unknown nature and severity during a joint practice with the Titans. His roster spot was in jeopardy with the return of Julian Edelman, Josh Gordon, and Demaryius Thomas to practice this past week. Harris will look to latch onto another club as a possession receiver.
Maurice Harris caught three of his five targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' preseason win over the Lions.
Fantasy Impact
Harris flashed in short stretches with the Redskins, and could see playing time due to the depleted depth chart in New England. He's not a particularly interesting player on an island, but he could deliver weekly value this season based on situation. Harris need not be drafted in most leagues, but is a good watchlist candidate.
Maurice Harris has impressed at training camp, and according to a report from Patriots beat writer Kevin Duffy, he has a strong chance to make the roster.
Fantasy Impact
According to Duffy, "If the season started tomorrow, Harris would not only be on the roster, but also in the starting lineup." Harris has showcased his precise route running and ability to line up all over the field and could be worth a late-round pickup in most formats.
Maurice Harris was not tendered an offer from Washington, meaning that he'll join the free agent market.
Fantasy Impact
Harris made some noise in fantasy circles last season in what was an overall ineffective Washington receiving corps. With Harris moving on, Trey Quinn is expected to move into the slot in Washington and is an interesting name to watch, especially in PPR leagues.
Washington wide receiver Maurice Harris caught one of his four targets for 14 yards in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans.
Fantasy Impact
Harris had a disappointing game after catching 10 passes two weeks ago and five passes last week, and the loss of quarterback Alex Smith for the season makes Harris a risky play for at least the next few weeks until we see what kind of chemistry he has with backup Colt McCoy.
