EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Najee Harris practiced Wednesday for the first time since the Los Angeles Chargers running back injured his eye in a July 4 fireworks mishap. The team activated him from the non-football injury/illness list, making him eligible to play in the Chargers' season-opening game against Kansas City in Brazil on Sept. 5. Coach Jim Harbaugh said Harris was a “possibility” to play in the opener, which would keep alive his streak of never missing a game in his NFL career.
