Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris was listed as questionable on the team’s final injury report. However, according to multiple NFL sources, the knee injury that made him pop up on the injury report this week won’t keep him out of this week’s game against the New England Patriots.
Harris currently leads the Steelers with 661 rushing yards on 159 carries. He also leads the team with four rushing touchdowns. Harris is part of the Steelers’ new two-headed monster in the run game with Jaylen Warren. Warren is second on the team with 601 rushing yards and three touchdowns of his own.
The Patriots, who boast the eighth-best defense in the NFL, have surrendered just nine touchdowns and 81.8 yards per game to running backs.
The two-headed monster will need a solid outing tonight to take some pressure off Mitch Trubisky and the struggling pass game.
