Giants Eye Pro Bowl RB Harris After Injury Blow
17 Aug
Summary
- Najee Harris, a former Pro Bowl running back, is visiting the Giants.
- Harris suffered a season-ending Achilles tear in Week 3 last season.
- The Giants' running back depth was impacted by a recent preseason injury.
The New York Giants are set to meet with Najee Harris, a running back with Pro Bowl experience. Harris is scheduled for a visit with the team on Monday, signaling potential interest in adding him to their roster.
Last season, Harris's campaign with the Chargers was cut short due to a season-ending Achilles tear sustained in Week 3. He managed only 15 carries for 61 yards before his injury. His previous NFL performance includes a standout rookie year in 2021 with the Steelers, where he earned Pro Bowl honors after rushing for 1,200 yards and seven touchdowns. Across four seasons in Pittsburgh, he consistently surpassed 1,000 rushing yards annually and recorded 28 rushing and six receiving touchdowns.
This potential acquisition comes at a crucial time for the Giants, as their running back situation was recently impacted. Dante "Turbo" Miller sustained an injury during the team's preseason loss to the Vikings on Saturday. The Giants currently have Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy, Devin Singletary, and Eric Gray on their running back depth chart.
