This video of Najee Harris’ fancy footwork will melt your face
By John Buhler
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is officially the ladder drill king of the world.
Nobody has more fun showing kids how to make a football ladder drill work for them quite like Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris.
Fresh off announcing a draft pick live from Mexico City, Harris is putting in the work with the local community. The delightful ladder drill is not everyone’s favorite thing to do on the practice field, but it is a way for one to build up their agility. While it is all about speed, Harris is showing the kids you can have the moves like Jagger or the hips like Shakira and make that thing work for you.
Nobody on God’s green Earth is getting ready to crash someone’s quince quite like Najee Harris.
Najee Harris’ hips don’t lie and he does his thing working the football ladder drill
Nobody has done more for the world of hips in the NFL since Dak Prescott operated with such tremendous torque and utter enthusiasm during the pregame of a prime-time affair for the Dallas Cowboys. Though he may not have to throw his hips open like a quarterback or a defensive back trying to keep pace with a wide receiver, Harris is waiting for tonight like Jennifer Lopez once did.
Channelling his inner ballerina, look for Harris to salsa in the end zone, trip to pay dirt after trip to pay dirt, like Victor Cruz once did before him. For the Steelers to have the success it needs in a new era under center, Harris will need to assert himself as a Pro Bowl-caliber player over the duration of his rookie contract with Pittsburgh. It will bring along first-round quarterback Kenny Pickett.
Then again, this is what the Steelers expected when they used their first-round pick two years ago on the former Doak Walker Award winner out of Alabama. Though the expectations are sky-high for Harris, that just comes with the territory in suiting up for such a proud franchise with a strong football culture like the Steelers. Even if that is the case, Harris can still have some fun out there.
The amount of people Harris is inspiring to do ladder drills cannot be calculated at this juncture.
