Najee Harris moves into top-5 rushers in Alabama history for yards and touchdowns

If an ankle injury does not happen to Jaylen Waddle, Alabama football would have four Heisman candidates.

As it now stands, the Crimson Tide has three players that need to be discussed. One of the three has tremendously improved its NFL Draft stock for 2021, especially after taking Nick Saban’s advice and returning for a senior season. He has been a breath of fresh air, but Najee Harris has also become a complete player. A senior from Antioch, Calif., he spent the summer training with Brad Lester (former Auburn running back) and Derrick Blaylock to create elite speed, explosiveness and endurance as a back.
