GREEN BAY, Wis. – In 2007, the Green Bay Packers used a seventh-round draft pick on Clark Harris.
On Sunday, he’ll be playing in his first Super Bowl.
Harris was drafted as a tight end. And he was a good one, too. While playing in a run-first offense at Rutgers, Harris caught 143 passes for 2,015 yards and 11 touchdowns during a career in which he was a three-time all-Big East first-team selection. He also was the long snapper.
“It was fourth down, I just got done with a 10-play drive, I was exhausted, I want to go sit on the bench like all the other guys,” Harris recently told NJ Advance Media.
