Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is coming off a terrific rookie NFL season and he could be coming back even bigger and stronger in 2022.

However, Harris wasn't pleased when reporters claimed he put on a lot of weight for OTA's. The RB weighed 232 lbs in 21′ according to most pages, but Harris made sure to set the record straight when he came in at 244 lbs at camp.

You'd have to believe the Steelers star knows his own weight better than anyone. But even just a four-pound increase could prove to be valuable for Harris. He ran for 1,200 yards in Year 1, also collecting seven touchdowns. The former Alabama standout is extremely quick and shifty but is also built like a bulldozer with a strong lower half.

You can't really blame the Steelers back to be irritated by these reports, though, especially when it's false. A lot of the time these different sites list the height and weight of certain players as inaccurate numbers. That is the case here according to Harris.

Najee Harris obviously wants to be even more of a bruiser next season and adding solid muscle to his frame will help him do so. As the Steelers head into a new era without Ben Roethlisberger, Harris is undoubtedly going to be a key part of the offense.
