Najee Harris said he heard from Snoop Dogg before the Steelers on draft night

Every NFL draft prospect dreams of that moment when they get that call and their new employer lets them know they are drafting them and share the excitement of the moment. Unless you are Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris. You get to hear from rapper Snoop Dogg first.

Harris went on the All Things Covered podcast and said he actually heard from Snoop Dogg before he heard from Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin on draft night. According to Harris, Snoop is friends with one of Harris’ agents and got him on the phone to congratulate him before he even heard from the team he was being selected by Pittsburgh in the first round of the 2022 NFL draft.
