The Pittsburgh Steelers are 5-2 through the first seven weeks of the 2024 NFL season and are currently in first place in the AFC North. Russell Wilson made his season debut on Sunday Night when he took on the Aaron Rodgers-led New York Jets.
Pittsburgh prevailed 37-15 in front of their home fans. However, after the game one starter had some interesting news to announce.
Steelers’ Starter Announces Moment He Knew He Was Being Punished By League
There is no doubt that the NFL is one of the best sports leagues in the world. Among the four major North American sports leagues, many NFL fans deem it to be very professional. There is a good chance Najee Harris will discover this the hard way very soon:
Harris is one of the NFL’s top rushers. The former Alabama running back was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 24th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, and he would go on to enjoy a decent rookie season.
While Harris may be a very good player, it doesn’t excuse him from following the NFL’s strict guidelines regarding media relations, and recent video shows that he will not enjoy what may come of his recent quote.
After being told that he was “running with some zest” during the Steelers’ 37-15 win over the New York Jets, Harris was seemingly delighted to have been complimented in such a way that he had a hilarious response.
Najee Harris Responds To Reporter Using Profanity
“Oh sh*t, shout to my n***a,” said the Steelers ball carrier in a somewhat hilarious profanity-laced response. However, it wasn’t just the response that had fans laughing, as he was immediately terrified, and the look after he realized what he had done said it all.
Due to Harris’ nearly $3.3 million salary and the Steelers’ solid 5-2 record, Harris’ comments may cost him a little money, but it won’t cost him his focus. In week eight, the New York Giants will roll into town on Monday Night Football.
