Steelers’ Najee Harris Tabbed As RB ‘Poised’ To Bounce Back In Week 2

It may not have been the debut Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie running back Najee Harris was hoping for in Week 1 on the road against the Buffalo Bills, but the good news for the first-round pick out of Alabama is that he’s just one day away from taking on a Las Vegas Raiders’ run defense that struggled to stop the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1.

In Week 1, Harris had just six of 16 runs that were successful in his NFL debut, which isn’t quite what you want to see from a run game that had high expectations coming into the year with a rebuilt offensive line and a budding star at running back.
