Najee Harris is still recovering from a superficial eye injury after a fireworks incident, forcing the Chargers RB onto the NFI list to begin camp.
Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris remains a question mark after the eye injury he suffered during a fireworks accident earlier this month. The Chargers already revealed that Harris could start training camp on the NFI list, noting that the veteran running back has been getting treatment for the injury at Stanford.
Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton is set to have an early start with the team, due to an injury to a teammate.
Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris will "likely" begin training camp on the non-football injury list after suffering an eye injury in a fireworks accident at a Fourth of July event, general manager Joe Hortiz told reporters on Wednesday.

GM Joe Hortiz said it was too soon to know how long the new running back might be sidelined because of a superficial eye injury due to a fireworks mishap.
