The New York Giants released running back Najee Harris two days after he started in a loss to the New Orleans Saints. Harris, who had only four carries in the 34‑27 defeat, expressed frustration with the team’s running‑back‑by‑committee approach. Head coach John Harbaugh acknowledged the player’s concerns and emphasized the need for a consistent rhythm. In five games with the Giants, Harris accumulated 31 carries for 99 yards, the lowest average of his six‑year NFL career. The release marks a swift roster change following the Sunday night loss.
