Oddsmakers Expecting Najee Harris to Have Productive Rookie Season

After the Pittsburgh Steelers selected him in the first round of the NFL Draft, running back Najee Harris is expected to see a significant workload this coming season.

Oddsmakers are expecting production with all those touches, and have released some optimistic over/unders for Harris’ rookie campaign.

The over/under for Harris’ rushing yards is set at 975, while his total touchdowns are 8.5.

Pittsburgh is planning to rely on Harris heavily in 2021, as they try to resurrect a putrid rushing attack that finished dead last in the NFL a season ago.

Harris rushed for 1,466 yards and scored 30 total touchdowns his senior season at Alabama.

The last Steelers running back to rush for more yards and account for more touchdowns in a single season was Le’Veon Bell with 1,291 rushing yards and nine touchdowns in 2017.
