Najee Harris Likes Challenge Of NFL Workload, Says He Asked For More Touches

Not only did Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Najee Harris lead the entire league in touches in 2021, he also recorded the most touches by a rookie, ever, without a fumble. It was one of the highest totals without recording a fumble in the history of the league, in fact, just one indication of not only his ability but willingness to handle the workload.

Speaking to Mike Florio for Pro Football Talk yesterday, he actually talked about the workload that he got in Pittsburgh in comparison to his experience at the college level at Alabama, and how he wants even more opportunities, if anything.
