FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- This wasn't anything close to members of the 1972 Miami Dolphins popping champagne each year when their undefeated season remained unmatched, but for some players on the 2003 and 2004 New England Patriots teams, the result of Super Bowl LV amplified something meaningful to them.
Safety Rodney Harrison was one of 41 players who were part of the Patriots' back-to-back championships -- a result of a 32-29 win against the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl XXXVIII, followed by a 24-21 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl XXXIX.
