Najee cleared for practice

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — Najee Harris was cleared to participate in full-contact practice, leaving the running back a possibility to play in the Los Angeles Chargers’ season opener Friday against the Kansas City Chiefs in Brazil.

Harris injured his eye in a July 4 fireworks mishap, putting him on the non-football injury/illness list ahead of training camp. As a result, he couldn’t be on the field with the team. Instead, he worked on the sideline with a personal trainer.

Harris said Monday after practice that his vision wasn’t affected by the mishap and called the injury “superficial.”
