Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey had the strongest words yet about James Harrison’s decision to sign with the New England Patriots, even going so far as to suggest that Harrison requested the release and had ruined his legacy as a member of the Steelers.
“He erased himself,” Pouncey said Wednesday. “He erased his own legacy here. Let’s be serious. ... I would think so, as a fan. [It’s] crazy. It blows my mind.”
Most of the Steelers have bitten their tongues when asked about Harrison or tried to play down his decision to sign with one of the team’s AFC rivals.
