Harris linked to an AFC North rival after leaving Pittsburgh

There is something quietly strange about landing across the division from the team that defined your career.

Najee Harris spent his first four NFL seasons in Pittsburgh, where he was the Pittsburgh Steelers' featured back from the day he arrived. He carried that offense through transitions at quarterback, through offensive line shuffles, through seasons that asked a lot and gave back unevenly. Pittsburgh was the only pro home he had known.

Now he is a free agent, and the early noise has him connected to an AFC North rival — a team that will face his former team twice a year.

For Harris, it is a chance to keep working. For Pittsburgh, it is the particular discomfort of watching a familiar face line up on the other sideline. Division games hit differently when someone knows exactly where you are weak.

The link is early. Nothing is signed. But the direction of it is worth watching.
