Word out of New England is that veteran safety Rodney Harrison will be sidelined 2-4 weeks with a sprained medial collateral ligament in his right knee. The injury occurred on a low block by Tennessee Titans wide receiver Bobby Wade, whose helmet appeared to come in contact with Harrison's knee.
Harrison has accused Wade of intentionally trying to injure him.
"He dove at my knees intentionally. He was trying to hurt me. The whole play was dirty."
I'm inclined to agree with Harrison on this one. After all, if anyone in the NFL knows a dirty play when it happens, it's Rodney Harrison. Who can forget Harrison launching himself into the knees of Trent Green in an exhibition game in 1999? Personally, I remember him rolling like a crocodile into Matt Hasselbeck's knees in a 2004 game, as well.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to search the NFL for someone who actually sympathizes with Harrison. Should take me awhile.
