2025 Fantasy Outlook
Harmon spent his first three collegiate seasons at Michigan State before transferring to Oregon for the 2024 season. He improved each year and was selected 21st overall by the Steelers in the 2025 NFL Draft. Harmon racked up 45 tackles (27 solo), including five sacks and 11 tackles for a loss, four pass defenses, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 2024. Larry Ogunjobi signed with Buffalo this spring, so Harmon should have a chance to see a full-time role as a rookie. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $17.97 million contract with the Steelers in May of 2025.
Ruled out again
Harmon (knee) has been ruled out of the Steelers' Week 14 matchup with the Ravens, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Harmon will now miss consecutive games due to a knee injury he suffered in the Week 12 loss to the Bears. The rookie first-rounder has logged 22 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks, one pass defensed, and one fumble recovery through nine games this season. With the defensive tackle absent against the Bills in Week 13, Yahya Black saw a significant uptick in defensive snaps and is likely in line for a similar workload against the Ravens this coming Sunday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Sidelined by knee sprain
The injury Harmon suffered in the Steelers' preseason game against the Panthers on Thursday is an MCL sprain, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The rookie first-round pick suffered the injury while trying to reach Panthers quarterback Jack Plummer in the second quarter. Harmon left the field on a cart, but he was back on the Steelers' bench by the fourth quarter, which seemed to portend an injury that wasn't as severe as it originally seemed. However, Pryor reports Harmon is still expected to need several weeks to recover, making him a candidate for short-term injured reserve and a corresponding four-game absence to start the 2025 campaign.
