The Pittsburgh Steelers will not select up the fifth-year alternative on jogging back Najee Harris’s rookie deal, ESPN’s Brooke Pryor noted Thursday.
This selection will make Harris an unrestricted no cost agent right after the 2024 NFL season until a offer is achieved prior to the conclusion of the year. The Steelers have not dominated out the selection of signing Harris to a new offer down the street, Pryor included, but there would not feel to be a rush to make a choice on him correct now.
Harris has carried the ball at the very least 250 occasions in all a few of his seasons, generating him the only NFL player to do so in the final three many years. He also has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in all a few campaigns, getting the very first Steelers player in franchise background to do so.
Harris’s rookie yr was his greatest to date, as he carried the ball 307 occasions for 1,200 yards and 7 touchdowns.
Harris will consider handoffs from a new Steelers quarterback in 2024 in veteran Russell Wilson. Past period, he played alongside Kenny Pickett, Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph as the Steelers dealt with uncertainty at quarterback throughout the 12 months.
