Ah, there’s nothing like a manufactured controversy. How much does Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris weigh? And when did he weigh it? There has been a bit of a kerfuffle lately in the Steel City, thanks in no small part to the Steelers’ absolute refusal to keep their website’s player vitals on their website updated. Now, player heights don’t vary much, but it shouldn’t be too hard to update weights.
Harris recently told reporters that he currently weighs 244 pounds. Some reporters took that and ran with it, using his listed weight of 232 pounds as an indication that he had put on some serious weight.
