Najee Harris likely to miss start of camp
Updating previous reports, Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) is likely to miss the start of training camp due to the eye injury suffered from a fireworks mishap.
Najee Harris suffers injury
Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris (eye) suffered a superficial eye injury during a Fourth of July event but should be ready for the start of the 2025 season, according to agent Doug Hendrickson.
Najee Harris looking to be more efficient in LA
Los Angeles Chargers RB Najee Harris has ranked second to last in cumulative rushing EPA (Expected Points Added) since he entered the NFL in 2021, per ESPN's Bill Barnwell, who writes that Harris could be more productive in his new role as LA presents a better situation than the one he had during his time with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Hampton and Harris to be 1-2 Punch
Eric Smith, from Chargers.com, reports Los Angeles Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh plans to deploy rookie first-round pick Omarion Hampton and free agent addition RB Najee Harris as a 1-2 punch. â€Å"I look at Najee and Omarion â€" both starters. He brings that same type of mentality Najee brings. Like I said last week, we're looking for someone who complements but also offers the same." Harbaugh said.

Omarion Hampton is seen as the future at running back for the Chargers. But it wont be in 2025. To fill in that gap the Chargers signed Najee Harris to a lucrative one year deal. And he will earn every cent of that money. Harris is the only back to record 1000 rushing yards in the last four seasons. He should make it five, with the bonus of more touchdowns.

"Run-heavy system will support two RBs"

Harris' talents got conflated with the struggling Steelers' offensive line while Jaylen Warren earned love for touches where the opposing defense played pass first. It's not that simple, but it's a factor.
In some circles, Omarion Hampton is regarded as the rookie RB-1B to Ashton Jeanty's 1-A. Not here.
Hampton has power and speed but for his attributes, he goes down too easily and doesn't have the acceleration to break away as often in the NFL. He'll earn a true split with Harris so expect Harris to have the edge this year due to his decision-making.
