Najee Harris Joins Chargers, Cites Harbaugh

News summary

Najee Harris, a former running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers, has signed a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Chargers, citing his desire to play under coach Jim Harbaugh as a significant factor in his decision. Harris, who consistently delivered over 1,000 rushing yards in each of his four seasons with the Steelers, subtly criticized his former team during his Chargers' introductory press conference by praising the Chargers' state-of-the-art facilities. This move comes after the Steelers declined Harris' fifth-year option due to a perceived poor fit with their offensive scheme. Harris' departure highlights ongoing challenges within the Steelers organization, including player dissatisfaction with team facilities and management. Despite the challenges in Pittsburgh, Harris looks forward to potentially exceeding his career-high in rushing yards in Harbaugh's run-focused offense. The Steelers, meanwhile, are set to transition with Jaylen Warren taking on a leading role in their backfield.
