Najee Harris Dealing With Arm Injury

Najee Harris Dealing With Arm Injury

2 months ago

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris (arm) suffered an apparent right-arm injury in the team's Week 3 win over the visiting Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday and was seen in the locker room on Monday with his right elbow in a sling. Harris wasn't removed from the game early, but Cordarrelle Patterson saw increased usage late in the contest against the Chargers with Harris ailing. Harris' final carry of the game went for a game-high 21 yards, and he finished with 18 carries for 70 yards and no touchdowns, adding a season-high five catches for 16 yards. It's something to watch going into Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts, but it doesn't appear that Harris' injury is very serious. The 26-year-old has 55 carries for 209 yards and seven catches for 30 yards through the first three games, and he could see more touches if Jaylen Warren (knee) ends up missing time.
