That statement he put out was awesome.
How many guys leave a team, or get released, and all they do is complain? (See Jacobs, Brandon, five years later). The story says negotiations "broke down." For most guys in that situation, cue up the "they don't respect my talents" stuff.
What a stark contrast Harris' statement was. And he didn't just thank a few, well-known guys - he mentioned and thanked several guys who are probably only known to the Jets' players.
That, to me, is what I would consider a "Michigan Man." Pure class, loves the game of football, and appreciates what he has. And he puts it all in a statement that is eloquently written.
And you know what? I'll bet he's going to come back next year with someone and have a solid year. Hopefully a team I like will figure out he can still play.
