Congrats to James Harrison, who was just voted as AP Defensive Player of the Year. He beat DeMarcus Ware and Ed Reed, who were the closest competitors. Troy Polamalu got a few consolation votes.
Silverback ended the year with this line. 101 tackles, 16 sacks, 7 forced fumbles and an interception. In 15 games.
Add a shotgun to the mix, and that fern stands no chance.
Normally, when a player gets a weekly award, I’ll MSPaint them with a chickadee or two. Since this is a massive award, you get Silverback with guns.
Congrats, James!
