Mike Pettine’s old boss Rex Ryan would be proud. After courting Damon “Snacks” Harrison this spring, reportedly offering the most money to the veteran nose tackle only for him to sign with Seattle, the Green Bay Packers finally got (a god damn) Snacks. And while it wasn’t that long ago Harrison wracked up an incredible 81 combined tackles, his impact for the Packers will be as much about the flexibility he provides as his actual production down-to-down.
This week, head coach Matt LaFleur called Harrison a “big-time pickup,” and the fact the former Seahawk got on the plane and practicing within 24 hours of being claimed tells us everything we need to know about how the Packers view this addition.
