Overview

• Najee Harris, who suffered a superficial eye injury in a July 4 fireworks accident, is scheduled to join Chargers training camp later today on the non-football injury list.
• General manager Joe Hortiz said Chargers and Stanford medical staff have shared positive treatment updates and will assess Harris in El Segundo upon his arrival.
• Under NFL rules, players on the NFI list after final roster cutdown must miss at least four games, but both Hortiz and agent Doug Hendrickson expect Harris to be cleared beforehand.
• NFL insider Ian Rapoport reported that Harris is not anticipated to miss significant time and should be back on the field swiftly.
• Harris’s timely clearance will be key to head coach Jim Harbaugh’s ground-attack strategy and the Chargers’ backfield rotation.
