Joe Starkey: Will Najee Harris win the race to a second contract?

PITTSBURGH — Najee Harris apparently showed up for OTAs as "Ninja" Harris, focused and toned, with thighs the size of the national deficit.

"He was an action figure already," tight end Zach Gentry told Steelers Nation Radio. "Think about how explosive he was last year and, I mean, he looks even more explosive this year."

A lot of running backs — including Le'Veon Bell and James Conner — slim down upon reaching the NFL. Not Najee. He weighed 232 pounds at his Alabama pro day. He says he played at 240 last year and is up to 244 — I'm guessing with a body fat percentage of 0.0, from the looks of it.
