It’s never not the case that a team’s first-round draft pick is a major point of focus during his rookie offseason, and that’s certainly no different for the Pittsburgh Steelers and running back Najee Harris—perhaps especially following a year in which they did not have a first-round pick for the first time in half a century.
Harris is actually the first first-round pick they’ve invested in an offensive player since David DeCastro in 2012, who is no longer here now, and potentially retiring. And he is already being set up as the new face of the offense. His teammates are not shying away from putting him in the spotlight, either, including the guys who have to try to tackle him…or work through his blocks.
