Steelers sign Kenneth Gainwell after releasing Najee Harris

sportingnews.com

The Pittsburgh Steelers have released running back Najee Harris, who has signed with the Los Angeles Chargers. In response, the Steelers have signed Kenneth Gainwell to bolster their running back group, which also includes Jaylen Warren and Cordarrelle Patterson. The Steelers are considering adding J.K. Dobbins, who had a strong season with the Chargers after recovering from injuries. Dobbins is projected to receive a two-year, $8.1 million deal in free agency, which the Steelers can afford. While the Steelers may focus on the running back position in the upcoming NFL Draft, they are also looking to secure a veteran player to strengthen their roster ahead of the new season.
