Najee Harris' Season Ends Early Due to Achilles Injury

Najee Harris, the Chargers' running back, is out for the rest of the 2025 season. This news came after tests confirmed he tore his Achilles tendon during a game against the Denver Broncos. Harris got hurt in the first half of the game. Everyone could tell right away that it was serious. This is a big deal because Harris has never missed a game in his career before. Plus, he won't reach 1, 000 rushing yards this season, which is something he's done in the past. Before this injury, Harris had 15 carries for 61 yards this season. He joined the Chargers in the offseason after being drafted in 2021. Earlier this year, he also had an eye injury that kept him out for a while. With Harris out, Omarion Hampton will likely take over as the main running back. Hampton has already rushed for 142 yards and a touchdown this season. He's also caught nine passes for 73 yards. This injury is a tough break for Harris and the Chargers. It's a reminder of how quickly things can change in sports. One moment you're playing, and the next, you're out for the season.
