On Friday, RB Najee Harris spoke to the media in lead up to Pittsburgh’s game this coming Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons on the road and was asked about the other running backs in the room with him and how they made the most of their opportunity when Harris left the game due to an abdominal injury.
Harris mentioned that it sucked to have to leave the game, but knew that the offense was in good hands with the other backs who rose to the occasion and contributed to Pittsburgh’s Monday night win in Indianapolis.
“I said, ‘This room right here is doing a good job and, and we’re going to be the backbone of the team right now on offense’,” Harris said to the media Friday in the locker room on video from Steelers.
