Steelers Najee Harris refutes MNF report he slept from seestyle's blog

Steelers rookie running back Najee Harris commanded a significant portion of the "Monday Night Football" broadcast early in the Steelers-Bears game, though not nece sarily for his on-field exploits.Much of the discu sion between Steve Levy, Louis Riddick and Brian Griese in the booth centered on Harris' childhood in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he and his family occasionally dealt with homele sne s Andrew Miller Jersey before he went onto stardom at Antioch (Calif.) High School and, later, the University of Alabama.MORE: Levy also mentioned during the broadcast that Harris slept Corey Kluber Jersey on the floor of his dormitory in his first few months at Alabama, as it was something he had gotten used to growing up.

I slept on Mike Napoli Jersey my bed Najee Harris (@ohthatsNajee22) MORE: It appears Levy got his Alabama players mixed up: Josh Jacobs, a former Crimson Tide running back who also dealt with homele sne s in Oklahoma, actually did sleep on the floor during his first few months at Alabama.An excerpt from a by Adam Kramer matches Levy's on-air report:"When he arrived at Alabama, Josh Jacobs spent his first few months sleeping on the floor in his dorm room. Not because he didn't have a bed. But because after years of sleeping on couches, on motel floors and in the back seat of his father's Cody Allen Jersey maroon Chevy Suburban, he was more comfortable there."MORE: ESPN's decision to focus on Harris early in its "MNF" broadcast coincides with an detailing the help he and his family have given to the Greater Richmond (Calif.) Interfaith Program, one of several homele s shelters they stayed at during his childhood.Harris' story has been well documented, including the fact he hosted his draft-day party at the same homele s shelter.
