Alabama RB Najee Harris Drove Nine Hours To See Mac Jones’ Pro Day After Canceled Flight

The Alabama connection is strong. If you need proof, just check out what running back Najee Harris was willing to do for his teammates on Tuesday morning.

Alabama’s Pro Day is today, and Najee Harris had a scheduled flight to make it in. When that flight was canceled, Harris had an alternative. He was willing to drive nine hours to get from Dallas to Tuscaloosa. The most interesting part was that Harris wasn’t even scheduled to workout today, he just wanted to be there for his teammates.

“Alabama RB Najee Harris’ flight from Dallas to Birmingham was cancelled last night due to lightning, so with no other travel options available, Harris drove nine hours to make it to Alabama’s Pro Day by 10 am today. He’s not even working out today but wanted to support teammates,” ESPN insider Adam Schefter said in a tweet.

Of the teammates Harris was going to watch included quarterback Mac Jones, who shined during his performance on Pro Day.

Najee Harris showed the kind of guy he is with this selfless act, and he’s going to be a really easy guy to root for no matter where he lands in the NFL.
