You don’t make it to the NFL without talent. You won’t get very far without drive, either. And on some days, you just need to be able to handle bad weather. Not everybody comes from Wisconsin like T.J. Watt and his brothers. Some have to learn how to embrace the cold, but that’s partly a character-driven component as well, as Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris sees it.
They’ll need that character this weekend playing in inclement weather on Sunday afternoon against the Buffalo Bills on the road. “We’re happy to be in those type of environments because it kind of separates from the guys who really want it”, he told reporters yesterday, via the team’s website.
