After an outstanding rookie season, running back Najee Harris looks to take a leap in Year 2 and lead the Pittsburgh Steelers to their first playoff victory in a handful of years. Najee will be the pillar of the Steelers’ offense as either rookie Kenny Pickett or free agent Mitch Trubisky is going to take over at quarterback, replacing the retired Ben Roethlisberger.
Harris has always been an exceptional athlete, and he continues to do Najee Harris things: Jumping over fully-grown adults on the football field. Harris made the hurdle his signature move during his time with the Crimson Tide in college, and he continues to do it against NFL veterans.
In his rookie campaign, Harris posted 307 carries for 1200 yards and seven touchdowns on the ground. He was also a huge threat in the air with 74 catches for 467 yards and three scores.
