James Harrison: 'It feels good' to return to Super Bowl
James Harrison has achieved his personal goal: he's heading back to the Super Bowl, even if it won't be on the team with whom he started the year.
Harrison was released by the Pittsburgh Steelers during the season, and angered many in the Steelers fan base when he turned around and signed with their hated rivals, the New England Patriots.
The linebacker recorded three tackles in Sunday's AFC Championship Game, helping the Patriots reach Super Bowl LII with a comeback win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
"It feels good," Harrison said to Kimberly Jones of the NFL Network shortly after the win. "That's the goal every year - to go to the Super Bowl and win it. We're one step away."
Harrison has two Super Bowl rings from the 2005 and 2008 champion Steelers. He'll now look to win a third before he turns 40 in May.
