Najee Harris adds spice to Los Angeles Chargers vs. Steelers in 2025

The Los Angeles Chargers added Najee Harris in free agency this offseason, giving them a running back who has run for at least 1,000 yards in four consecutive seasons. In L.A., he will continue to be the featured back, and could get more touches considering Jim Harbaugh's affinity for running the ball.
There are plenty of doubters who don't approve of the contract he signed but Harris will get his chance to silence those critics. He will also get a crack at his old team since the Pittsburgh Steelers will visit Los Angeles at some point this season.

We don't know for sure when that game will take place but we know that Harris just added some extra spice to the showdown. During a recent media session, Harris praised the Chargers' facilities, and while doing so shaded the Steelers.
Harris never outright bashed his former team but the pieces are easy to put together. He not only stated that the Chargers offer more than other teams, but made sure to exclude Alabama from that.
Considering the only team he's played for since leaving 'Bama is Pittsburgh, there's no other franchise he could have been talking about.
It will be interesting to see if the Steelers come into their meeting with a little more fire after that.
