Rodney Harrison Biography

At Western Illinois University, Rodney Harrison still holds several school records including tackles in a career (345) and tackles in a game (28). Harrison was then drafted by the San Diego Chargers in 1994 where he started at strong safety for 7 seasons, earning two Pro Bowl selections in that time span. Harrison was released after 2002 by the Chargers and was picked up by the New England Patriots where he was named as the defensive captain in his first season with the team. Harrison played for 6 seasons with the Patriots, winning two Super Bowls along the way. He joined an elite club of only 12 players to record 20 sacks and 20 interceptions in a career and by 2007 became the first player to ever record 50 sacks and 30 interceptions in a career. In 2003 Harrison retired from the game to join NBC as a football analyst and upon his retirement Bill Belichick called Harrison one of the best players he’s ever played.
