Pat Freiermuth, Najee Harris Showing Leadership In Camp

Part of the 2021 draft class, TE Pat Freiermuth and RB Najee Harris have grown in similar ways. Not just on the field but off it. One thing I’ve noticed throughout camp, small as it may seem, is the vocal leadership both are displaying daily at Saint Vincent College.

Their play has been solid. Harris has run hard while Freiermuth has been peppered with targets. They have both more active in practice than I expected, knowing how careful the Pittsburgh Steelers were with Harris last year. Freiermuth is likely to receive a long-term extension before camp and wants to keep himself healthy ahead of it.
