The Giants will release veteran RB Najee Harris, according to an NFL.com roundup item that put the roster move at the center of the day’s league news. The report names Harris as the player on the way out, making him the headline development in a page built to track the latest around the NFL.
That is why the move is being searched now: it is a direct change to a veteran player’s status, and it arrives as part of a roundup that also touches Lamar, Dickerson, Tracy, Nacua and a Jets RB. NFL.com, which says it keeps readers up to date with the latest league news from around the NFL, does not spell out why the Giants are moving on from Harris, and that missing piece is the part that leaves the story open.
Nick Shook is named on the roundup, which also points readers to Mike Vrabel and Ben Johnson discussing their Week 7 matchup on The NFL Report, along with other updates involving the Broncos and Niners. But Harris is the cleanest new development in the package: a veteran running back being cut loose without a stated explanation, leaving his next step to be defined by what comes after the release rather than by the move itself.
