Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris Foot Injury More Serious Than Believed

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have rarely been whole during this year’s preseason. The offense in particular has endured long weeks without some of its top weapons. But in their preseason finale against the Detroit Lions, they got their first look at what the presumed opening day starting lineup was.

Najee Harris was in the backfield again after recovering from a foot injury. Harris said it was a sprained ligament, an injury that typically takes four to six weeks to heal. He is now roughly four weeks deep into the recovery process and, in his own words, still a little rusty.
