'Ungrateful' Najee Harris blasted by ESPN analyst for his Steelers criticism
Najee Harris has been making Pittsburgh Steelers headlines for all the wrong reasons since signing with the Los Angeles Chargers in free agency.
Instead of taking the opportunity to thank the Steel City like former Steelers LB Elandon Roberts, the Black and Gold faithful has been treated to nothing but sour grapes every time Harris is interviewed — and ESPN analyst Bart Scott has heard enough.
Scott, a former NFL linebacker who spent seven years with the Ravens and four with the Jets, blasted Harris for his comments about the Pittsburgh Steelers:
"You ungrateful dude. I mean, listen, how fortunate is it for you to be in the playoffs every year of your career? That doesn't just happen — and when he leaves, sometimes you realize how good you had it. Now he's going to a place that maybe has a future quarterback, but it's going to be a similar philosophy."
The idea that Chargers HC Jim Harbaugh's coaching style mirrors that of Mike Tomlin is right on the money, but only time will tell if the grass in Los Angeles was truly greener than in Pittsburgh for Harris.
