Seahawks Eyeing Najee Harris for Running Back Boost

0:00On March 25th, the Seattle Seahawks are facing a big gap at running back, heading into the 2026 off-season. Kenneth Walker III signed with the Kansas City Chiefs in Free Agency, leaving them short. They've added Emanuel Wilson from the Green Bay Packers and like George Holani's potential, but they hosted former Pittsburgh Steelers star Najee, Harris, on a free agent visit this week. Harris racked up 1,000 rushing yards every season during his four years, with the Steelers earning pro-ball honors along the way. He's also shown solid skills as a receiver, with 74 catches for 467 yards and three touchdowns in his rookie year. Meanwhile, Zack Sharbinay's injury means he won't be back anytime soon, putting pressure on the backfield. Fans and analysts see Harris as a steady veteran who could provide depth and leadership right away. The main concern is Harris' torn Achilles from last season with the Los Angeles Chargers, which is why teens like Seattle are giving him a close look during visits.

1:02After the Seahawks, he's headed to the Raiders next. With a thin draft class at the position, landing Harris could stabilize things as they rebuild without Walker, keeping their offense balanced for the long haul. This has been NFL News Today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the Story.
