Najee Harris Injury Update: Chargers RB to Miss Remainder of 2025 Season After Tearing Achilles
Harris' injury leaves Chargers with limited running backs and increases reliance on passing, with the team passing on 61.5% of plays through three games, per Next Gen Stats.
- On Monday, Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh confirmed Najee Harris tore his Achilles and will miss the remainder of the 2025 season.
- During Sunday’s game, Harris collapsed on a second-quarter play and grabbed his left calf after appearing to crumple without contact, while analyst Marty Jaramillo said the tear followed a `negative step`.
- Harris had built an uncommon streak by rushing for over 1,000 yards in each of the past four NFL seasons and totaled 15 carries for 61 yards and three catches for 25 yards through three games.
- With Harris out, the Chargers will lean more on rookie Omarion Hampton, who finished with 129 yards from scrimmage and a three-yard touchdown, while Kimani Vidal is a likely promotion.
- Harris signed a one-year deal in March and will spend the majority of the next year rehabbing, leaving his future in Los Angeles uncertain ahead of free agency next offseason.
