Chargers RB Harris Starts Camp on Injury List, Rookie WR Harris Contract Delayed

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris is expected to begin training camp on the non-football injury (NFI) list due to a superficial eye injury from a July 4 fireworks accident but is not expected to miss significant time during the regular season. Harris has been receiving treatment at Stanford Medical Center and is anticipated to report to the team soon, with the Chargers confident that this is a short-term issue. Meanwhile, second-round wide receiver rookie Tre Harris is holding out and has yet to sign his rookie contract, delaying his training camp debut. Chargers GM Joe Hortiz expressed understanding of the holdout, emphasizing the importance of practice while hoping Harris signs soon to join camp. The holdout is part of a wider trend among 30 unsigned second-round picks seeking fully guaranteed contracts following precedent-setting deals signed by the first two picks in the second round. Both players' situations highlight ongoing challenges for the Chargers as they prepare for the upcoming season.
