Steelers RB Najee Harris says he plans to play vs Patriots

On Sunday, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris suffered a foot/ankle injury late in regulation that forced him out of the game. The replay of the injury looked bad as he basically got folded up on by a Bengals tackler.

But according to Harris when he talked to the media on Wednesday, he’s good and plans to play on Sunday against the New England Patriots.

Harris did say the injury wasn’t related to the Lisfranc injury he suffered in training camp that forced him to miss most of the preseason. The Pittsburgh run game never got going last week with Harris only getting 23 yards on 10 carries. If the Steelers are going to keep their win streak going this week, the run game has to do a better job and that includes Harris.
