The Pittsburgh Steelers have officially declined the 5th year option ($6.97 Million) on Najee Harris contact, effectively making Harris a free agent next season, barring unlikely scenario of the two sides agreeing to an extension. Harris has accumulated three straight 1,000-yard seasons but is 26 years old and reaching the end of his prime years for running back standards. The Steelers have rarely given out a second contract to running backs.
