Steelers GM Omar Khan non-committal on Najee Harris’ fifth-year option

Speaking with a scrum of Steelers media from the NFL Scouting Combine, general manager Omar Khan was non-committal on the topic, according to TribLive’s Joe Rutter.

The salary cap dictates the cost of which positions would earn what on their exercised option, and for running backs, it’s $6.79 million. The deadline is May 2.

Harris, who still has one year remaining on his rookie deal, topped 1,000 rushing yards in his first three NFL seasons — all while dealing with injuries, a subpar offensive line and questionable play-calls from ex-offensive coordinator Matt Canada.
