Chargers running back Najee Harris injured in fireworks mishap

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris experienced a minor eye injury due to a fireworks accident during a July 4 event, as confirmed by his agent Doug Hendrickson. Fortunately, Harris is expected to fully recover and be ready for the upcoming NFL season, according to the statement. The incident also caused injuries to multiple other attendees. Meanwhile, the Chargers are preparing for training camp, with veteran players reporting on Wednesday and rookies scheduled to report on Saturday. Harris, who previously played for the Pittsburgh Steelers, signed a one-year contract with the Chargers earlier this year. The team also drafted North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton in the first round. The duo is anticipated to complement each other during the season. The Chargers may decide to place Harris on the non-football injury or illness list depending on the severity of the injury, potentially leading him to miss at least the first four games of the season.
