Steelers RB Najee Harris cutting weight ahead of 2024 season

The Pittsburgh Steelers have leaned heavily on Najee Harris over the last three seasons. The former first-round pick has carried the ball 834 times in that span for 3,269 yards and 22 touchdowns. And heading into a contract year, Harris is cutting weight in order to be lighter on his feet.

Harris’ trainer, Josh Scott, spoke with Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette where he said No. 22 is currently hovering at 235 pounds, which is about seven pounds lighter than he was in 2023.

“He’s motivated to say the least,” Scott said.
