PITTSBURGH -- Steelers linebacker James Harrison has been one of the NFL's most ferocious hitters over the last decade, but he takes a more delicate approach with his kids playing football.
Harrison said his son, who currently plays flag football, can also play tackle football -- but only if dad can supervise the action. Harrison would have 14 NFL seasons of experience to impart on his kids.
"He wants to start playing tackle. To be honest, I'm not comfortable with it unless I can be there every day," said Harrison, 38, from the Steelers locker room, speaking for the first time since his May decision to return for 2016.
