Najee Harris Quickly Deletes Post Criticizing Ben Roethlisberger

Najee Harris was clearly as confused as the rest of us by the latest soundbite from his quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger.

On Wednesday, Roethlisberger basically admitted to local media that his team has no chance of beating the Chiefs in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs this weekend.

Najee Harris Calls Out Big Ben

“We probably aren’t supposed to be here,” Roethlisberger said. “We probably are not a very good football team. Out of 14 teams that are in, we’re probably at number 14. We’re double-digit underdogs in the playoffs. So let’s just go plan and have fun and see what happens.

“…We’re probably 20-point underdogs and we’re going to No. 1 team… that’s won the AFC the last two years. Arguably the best team in football. We don’t have a chance so let’s just go in and have fun.”

Najee Harris took to Instagram to react to the quote from Big Ben. He posted the quote with a caption questioning the context of his answer before quickly deleting it.

While Ben Roethlisberger was probably going for some weird gamesmanship thing with his comments, it’s clear that Najee Harris isn’t planning on going to Kansas City just to have a fun time.

Big Ben also admitted that he believes the Steelers are going to be at least 20 point underdogs this weekend. But as of now, Pittsburgh sits at +13.5 for the game.

Needless to say, Ben Roethlisberger is going to have to explain his bizarre comments to Najee Harris during practice tomorrow.
