Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris had a season-best game last time out with 111 yards rushing, as well as the game-winning touchdown reception. The big day put him 46 yards shy of 1000 yards on the ground for the season, which he needed today to hit the mark for the year.
He did just that, and in doing so became the first Steelers running back in team history to rush for 1000 or more yards in each of his first two seasons. Franco Harris didn’t do it. Le’Veon Bell didn’t do it. Jerome Bettis did…but he was not a Steeler at the time, as you might recall.
