A new series for Steelers Depot we’ll dedicate a handful of posts to. You’ve heard about right player, wrong team to highlight those who changed organizations late in their career. Franco Harris in Seattle, Mike Webster in Kansas City, you get the idea.
Today, we’re looking at James Harrison’s brief and painful career at long snapper.
Yeeeeaaahhh, we’re talking about this one. Depressing as it is, few “out of position Steelers” can be remembered as vividly as Harrison’s emergency long snapping in 2008.
For years, Greg Warren was the Steelers’ guy. A consistent, valuable player but a forgettable one as virtually all long snappers are.
