Najee Harris, the bruising ex-Alabama star who’s been a Steelers fan favorite, is packing his bags for a fresh start! Posts on X and reports from NFL insiders like Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo say the Los Angeles Chargers have snagged the running back on a one-year deal worth up to $9.25 million. After four rock-solid seasons in Pittsburgh—where he racked up over 4,300 rushing yards and never missed a game—this feels like a big shift for the 26-year-old.
Steelers fans are already pouring out their hearts online. “Thanks for the memories, Najee—good luck in LA!” one wrote, while another wondered, “Why leave now?” With the Chargers, Harris lands in a run-heavy offense under Greg Roman, and folks are hyped to see if he’ll finally explode for that monster season everyone knows he’s got in him. Back at Alabama, he was a record-smashing beast—3,843 rushing yards, 46 touchdowns—and now, paired with Justin Herbert, he might just light up the AFC West. Buckle up, Chargers fans—Najee’s coming to town!
