NEW YORK — The Giants' offseason-long interest in adding a running back culminated Tuesday in the signing of free agent Najee Harris.
The 6-1, 242-pound veteran is a physical runner who John Harbaugh knows well as an opponent.
Harris, 28, rushed for 1,000-plus yards in four straight seasons for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 2021-24 in the same AFC North division as Harbaugh's Baltimore Ravens.
Then he signed with Harbaugh's brother, Jim, and the Los Angeles Chargers last year before tearing his Achilles three games into the regular season.
"I know there's gonna be a lot of questions about how I'll come back," Harris said Tuesday after practice. "I'm ready to answer all those."
