The former Steelers, who ran through Najee Harris, were not missing out on his old team.
Harris, now a member of the Chargers, expressed concern over the franchise's lack of direction and had some honest comments about his former team.
Harris I spoke to KCAL Last week, the Steelers attacks, which began with Kenny Pickett as his successor since the end of the Ben Roethlisberger era.
He said the team “lacks” an offensive identity.
“It was the team we lost Ben, we lost O-Line, we just didn't know anything about the attack, we didn't have any identity,” admitted Harris. “We had a young guy who came into QB. I was young. The team was young. There was little learner from the offensive side. I think the veteran guy on that team was a veterinarian for two years. He's still learning himself.
Harris added: [in LA]like there are a lot of veterans who can learn more about quarterback positions and even O-line positions. So, it was an interesting year, I just say it. An interesting year. ”
Harris, who drafted the overall No. 24 in 2021, was the Steelers primary running back for all four seasons alongside his team.
The Alabama alum never missed the game in a hurry for 4,312 yards in four consecutive 1,000-yard season appearances, starting with 68 regular-season appearances.
Harris will sign with the Chargers on a one-year deal worth $9.5 million for the 2025 season and will start in the backfield along with star quarterback Justin Herbert.
