Around the NFL: Najee Harris

Yesterday was the deadline for picking up or not picking up fifth-year options on players drafted in the first round back in 2021.

Factoid: Ground and pound

Here we go again? The Steelers had the most improved running game in the league last year, averaging 51 more yards in the second half of the season, and with 3 times as many touchdowns.

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Matt Canada squashed any potential controversy about the team’s backfield room on Monday, saying that “Najee is our 1”. Despite running back JAYLEN WARREN’s big game andMore solid preseason, NAJEE HARRIS will remain the starting running back for the Steelers heading into the upcoming season. Fantasy owners should note, however, that Harris and Warren split reps down the stretch last season and will likely do so again this season. Less

Ian Allan: Durable backs

Austin Ekeler and Najee Harris have both started all 17 games the last two years? Can we count on these guys to stay healthy? Or is running back simply an inherently dangerous position (with every player a substantial risk to have his season ruined)?   more »

Around the NFL: Najee Harris

Najee Harris has generally been a disappointment this season, but he's at least played his best ball the last two weeks. He has a tough matchup this week, at Indianapolis, but I think he'll keep things going.   more »
