‘Very Close, If Not Better:’ James Harrison Weighs In On Watt/Highsmith Combo Versus Woodley/Himself

Former Steelers OLB James Harrison hasn’t been afraid to defer praise to someone else or look at himself in a humble light. He’s mentioned recently that he was proud of OLB T.J. Watt breaking his franchise sack record in Pittsburgh, stating that it’s been standing for too long. He also has mentioned that he doesn’t believe that he should get inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame based on his career stats compared to others vying for that honor.

Speaking with DL Cameron Heyward on the Not Just Football with Cam Heyward podcast, Heyward asked Harrison about the pass rush duo currently in Pittsburgh between Watt and Alex Highsmith and if he thinks that those two could match the duo Harrison was a part of with LaMarr Woodley back in their heyday.
