Coming off a torn Achilles, running back Najee Harris works out with the New York Giants

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Running back Najee Harris underwent a workout with the New York Giants on Monday as the team considered signing the veteran player, who had not played since tearing his left Achilles tendon a year prior. The 28-year-old had made three appearances for coach John Harbaugh’s brother, Jim, with the Los Angeles Chargers last season before the injury on September 21.

While not fully back to 100% form, Harbaugh acknowledged Harris has the experience and reputation as a decorated veteran. The Giants' backfield situation remains unclear following the injury to running back Dante Miller, who was waived/injured during the preseason opener against Minnesota. Harris would offer dependable depth if he were healthy.

Skattebo and Tracy are anticipated to carry the workload. Harris’ visit was timed with the addition of quarterback Jake Haener and linebacker Chandler Martin to the roster. Harris would give the Giants additional stamina on the ground if he were to return to action.
