Najee Harris Humorously Attributes Absence to Teammate’s Girlfriend’s Thanksgiving Dish

Steelers running back Najee Harris said he had too much of a Thanksgiving treat and that’s why he was briefly sidelined during the first quarter of Pittsburgh’s 44-38 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

In his postgame press conference, Harris explained that he overindulged on a dish made by Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth’s girlfriend — and it wound up slowing him down on Pittsburgh’s second drive at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati.

“Thanksgiving, Pat’s girlfriend, Jill, she made this fire-ass little banana thing,” Harris said. “I had too much. I guess I didn’t know it affected me until that first drive. So, I blame her.”

Harris slowed up on a screen pass early in the game and then went to the sideline with what was said to be a leg injury at first.

He downplayed the moment and said he felt good after eating some oranges.
