Overview

• Najee Harris was placed on the active/non-football injury list on July 17 after sustaining a superficial eye injury in a July 4 fireworks mishap in Antioch, California.
• General manager Joe Hortiz said Harris remains in good spirits and is expected to report to the team’s El Segundo facility later on July 17 with only a brief absence anticipated.
• Chargers doctors and Stanford Health Care specialists have maintained daily communication to assess Harris’s progress before clearing him for practice.
• If Harris remains on the NFI list through the late-August roster cutdown, he would be required to sit out the first four regular-season games under NFL rules.
• In Harris’s absence, rookie Omarion Hampton and the team’s depth backs will take on larger workloads while the Chargers also navigate initial camp designations for wide receiver Mike Williams and safety Elijah Molden.
