Najee Harris has put together an impressive rookie campaign for the Pittsburgh Steelers, taking on the role of an every-down back and amassing 1,200 rushing yards and 10 total touchdowns. The Alabama product put his versatility on display as well, recording 467 receiving yards and three such touchdowns.
Pittsburgh will need every bit of Harris it can get on Sunday when the team travels to Kansas City for a first-round meeting with the Chiefs. The 23-year-old proved just how reliable he could be during the regular season, and now it’s time for him to prove that he can bring it when it matters most.
Let’s take a look at some of our favorite props for Harris ahead of Sunday’s Wild Card showdown.
