The Pittsburgh Steelers want to establish themselves as a running team with Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. During the 2024 season, they managed to achieve the volume, but not the production. Despite having the fourth-most rushing attempts, they finished outside the top 10 in yards. What’s more, they finished outside the top half in rushing touchdowns, and in the bottom quartile in yards per attempts.
Both of the Steelers’ top runners are free agents, with Najee Harris unrestricted. While Warren is only a restricted free agent, that still means money. To tag him with no compensation option, it would cost over $3 million.
