Najee Harris rushed 16 times for 75 yards and a touchdown in a Week 13 win over the Bengals, adding 54 receiving yards on six catches.

Harris was a huge part of the Steelers’ gameplan, gaining 53 of the team’s first 60 yards. However, that also led to him struggling to run after catching a pass and having to be helped to the bench, where he was given oxygen. Harris would miss the next drive before coming back into the game. It’s unclear if he was dealing with an illness or simply not able to handle that much of a workload, but it’s certainly a situation to monitor for those people hoping he can take on a larger role in the backfield. When he was on the field, Harris ran hard and broke countless tackles. He also looked good out of the backfield with the Steelers prioritizing screen passes against an aggressive Bengals defense. It will be a bit tougher sledding next week against the Browns.
