Harris doesn't look like 298 in that picture.

wicked! i'm guessing the RB decision was made solely on KR abilities (a 25 yard return average isn't too bad.) If he doesn't pan out I'm sure we'll let him go.

Harris? that excites me. The last time we signed a Harris nobody had heard of, good things happened.

Gantt says "312 plus"

It's the Charlotte Observer, so you can pretty much expect anything they say to be wrong.

"But he didn't returned punts in college or with the Packers."

I hope you dont mean Chris Harris, because 1, we didnt sign him, we traded for him, and 2 many of us had heard of him.

Oh my f**king god.

Thats right. He's never returned kickoffs or punts. Which is why I hate this signing.

I was speaking more to the blatant grammatical error in that sentence.

[SmootsDaddy89]

He did return kickoffs for the Packers though, and apparently we liked what we saw.

I don't like this guy. He didn't returned punts in college.
