Pittsburgh Steelers’ second-year running back Najee Harris is already a household name in the NFL, especially after coming off of a rookie season in the Steel City filled with highlight-reel plays and franchise-history-making production.
A true bellcow in every sense of the word in the Steelers’ backfield, Harris profiles as the next wave of dual-threat running backs in today’s NFL, one that can single-handedly carry an NFL offense for stretches. That’s largely why the Steelers were interested in him in the 2021 NFL Draft, grabbing him at No. 24 overall out of the University of Alabama.
The sky is the limit for Harris in terms of on-field production and off-field attention (in a good way), for seemingly everyone associated with the NFL, aside from former NFL offensive lineman, radio broadcaster and podcast host Ross Tucker.
