Najee Harris & the future of the RB position in the NFL

“Bleav in Steelers” hosts Ike Taylor and Mark Bergin discuss Najee Harris’ commentary about how NFL teams aren’t valuing the running back position in 2023.

Harris has two years remaining on his rookie contract. Also, the Steelers could pick up his fifth-year option for the 2025 season.

Dalvin Cook and Ezekiel Elliott remain free agents. The New York Giants put the franchise tag on Saquon Barkley.

Bergin explains how Cook’s release by the Vikings signals two things:
1. At what point is too much salary allocated to the quarterback position?
2. NFL teams will use teams skill position players in a variety of ways. Like the NBA, it will become position-less. Running backs and receivers will need to be able to do it all: Run, catch, block, etc.
