Najee Harris Puts On Some Weight
3 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris now weighs 244 pounds, up from his listed playing weight of 230 pounds last year as a rookie. The Athletic's Mark Kaboly was already raving this offseason that Harris was one of the most physically imposing running backs he's ever seen. The 24-year-old was very impressive in his first NFL season in 2021, going for 1,200 rushing yards and seven touchdowns on 307 carries while also adding 74 catches on 94 targets for 467 yards and three more scores. While Pittsburgh's offense might not be as intimidating without quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, Harris should remain heavily involved and will no doubt be a high-end RB1 target in fantasy. He finished as the RB4 last year behind only Jonathan Taylor, Austin Ekeler and Joe Mixon.
