LATROBE, Pa. -- Speaking for the first time since the Pittsburgh Steelers opted to decline his fifth-year option, running back Najee Harris said Wednesday he was "disappointed" with the team's decision, but the 26-year-old didn't let the hurt linger.

"I was disappointed for a minute, but I mean, it's nothing really where me sitting around being disappointed for too long will do anything to help me out," Harris said as the Steelers reported to training camp at St. Vincent College. "I think that it is what it is, and you just got to keep it pushing and knowing that coming out here and doing what's best for the team and having a good year is what's most important right now.
