It’s no secret that the Patriots are in need of bolstering their secondary after the Asante Samuel-less unit gave up far too much real estate through the air in 2008, and help may be coming from an unlikely source. When SS Rodney Harrison tore his quadriceps muscle against the Broncos in Week Seven, the prevailing sentiment around the team was that the 36-year-old’s career was over. Things have changed. The word we’re now hearing is that Harrison has dedicated himself fully to his rehabilitation and appears primed to make a return to the gridiron. The fact that he’s a free agent shouldn’t be a hindrance to getting him back into the fold due to the mutual respect he and the organization hold for one another. He’s a good fit in the 3-4, which utilizes him both in coverage and as a nickel linebacker.
Just one more year Rodney. Go out as a champion.
I was at the first preseason game, but I sneezed and missed his entire Patriot career to date.Would love to seem him come back as well, how about Tank Williams.. we never even saw him play a down, could Rodney add depth along with him??
Mine too, but how much does he have left? I wish he could play on this team forever but that's obviously impossible.
He's had some major injuries and I hope that he isn't wrecking his body, there is life after football.
Rodney may be the most important player on this defense and it would be a great story for all of the older players to go out with a ring but I just don't want them to be one of these players that doesn't know when to hang em' up.
Luv the guy, I just hope he makes a well thought out and informed decision.
Man, I love Rodney and he has had some major injuries the last few years but it shows his heart, drive and love of football to come back after all of them.
