I loved watching Rodney lay wood on many receivers. He sure had great technique. Now he'll be doing work in the booth. Good luck.

Yes, a couple, but, then again, I've only seen a couple of very questionable hits done by Harrison too. I respect the heck out of both of them, because, lest we forget folks, football is a violent game, full of vicious hits. That is the way we like it too!

Those that played against him called him dirty, those that played with him said he played hard and respected the heck out his work ethic and how he played. All in the perspective of which side you're on.

I'm surprised he called it quits since I feel like he has something in the tank still. He would be adequately serviceable playing limited minutes.
