FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – The bullying started in middle school - no matter that Jonotthan Harrison was an unlikely target at 6-foot-3, 270 pounds, bigger than almost everyone who taunted him.

On the school bus.

In school.

After school.

In the neighborhood near his central Florida home in Lake County.

“There was one guy that was bigger than me, but everybody else was smaller,” the Jets’ 28-year-old center recalled in the locker room after a recent practice.
