Monday morning, Sports Illustrated released their list of the greatest undrafted players in NFL history. Just one Steeler made the list but he was a well-deserving inclusion. Rick Gosselin named James Harrison one of the two best UDFA outside linebackers in history. He included this bio blurb next to Harrison’s name.
“OLB James Harrison, 2002 (15, 193) 5 Pro Bowls, 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Scored the longest touchdown in Super Bowl history in 2009 on a 100-yard interception of a Kurt Warner pass.”
Harrison went undrafted out of Kent State in the 2002 NFL Draft.
