FOXBORO — The bye week helped linebacker James Harrison’s integration, but it’s not like he was able to stop time.
Harrison was honest yesterday while discussing his late-season acclimation process to the Patriots defense. He can pick up a little more information by the day, but he’ll never be able to catch up to anyone who has been on the roster for the full season.
“It’s a little bit better, but it’s nowhere near where it needs to be,” Harrison said.
The longtime Pittsburgh Steeler joined the Patriots in Week 17 and played 27 snaps in the victory against the New York Jets.
