He has a murder trial coming up doesn't he?
Harrison is currently being sued by Dwight Dixon, the victim of a shooting outside Chuckie's Garage, a Philadelphia business owned by Harrison, on April 29th, 2008.Dixon claims that Harrison was the shooter; however, when filing his initial police report, he claimed that he was shot by two men in a robbery attempt. After changing his story to implicate Harrison, Dixon was charged with several misdemeanors related to making false police reports; he was found guilty of filing a fictitious report on January 28, 2009.
On January 6, 2009, Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham announced that police have confirmed that it was Harrison's gun that fired shots at Dixon but they had been unable to determine who pulled the trigger. No charges have been filed in shooting the investigation will remain open.
Forgot about but i think he will be cleared of everything.
Seems like a big distraction. But he is the prototypical possession receiver this team needs. I don't see it happening though.
He is on the tail end of his career and would likely want to play on a contender. Someone like Philly could use him opposite of DeSean Jackson.
Yeah i dont see it happening either. but it is a option.Quote:

Too old..
doesnt mean he cant teach these young guys.Quote:
