Last season, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris finished his rookie campaign with 381 touches for 1,667 total yards. After many games he was asked about his heavy workload and he dismissed any concerns. Harris never seemed to hit a rookie wall despite running behind a substandard offensive line.
This season, Harris is prepared to up his workload even more if it means it helps the team win. Harris was on the Rich Eisen Show and said he’s going to get 500 touches and he’s fine with it as long as the team is winning.
