When the Pittsburgh Steelers chose to move on from 2021 first-round pick Najee Harris this offseason, many believed he would have a strong market after four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons to start his career. Instead, he signed with the Los Angeles Chargers on just a one-year, $5.25 million deal that could be worth up to $9.25 million with incentives.
Despite his arrival, the Chargers also added Omarion Hampton in the first round of this year's NFL draft, further clouding Harris' role in the offense. Things continued to spiral for Harris, this time thanks to a fireworks accident that left him with injuries to his face and eye.
