Jets NT Damon Harrison: I'd be considered a SG in NBA in any other case for NFL

The New York Jets have one of the better defensive lines inside the NFL written. Guys like Sheldon Richardson, Muhammad Wilkerson, and Leonard Williams get almost all of the attention, but nose tackle Damon Harrison is a huge part of that group, at the same time. He just does not get as much national recognition as his teammates do.
Even without his name within the spotlight, Harrison wouldn't consider himself underrated.
"I wouldn't use that word, but I can realize why other people do because I'm not the family unit name like Muhammad, Sheldon and Leonard are," he explained via the Associated Press. "The those who watch football specifically what I do."
Harrison considers himself to get the best nose tackle inside league, which shows the truly great confidence he's in himself. But if was without the success he's had from the NFL, Harrison knows although have been great in another profession.
"Playing from the NBA," he stated. "I'd apt to be a short shooting guard, but I'd be inside the NBA, and I'm very confident in stating that."
Harrison played shooting guard in high school graduation, and was seemingly a compelling player before looking towards football.
"I would be a pure shooter, man."
Harrison stands at 6-foot-4, 350 pounds, so he may not be your average guard within the NBA. But just as the job states within the name, you have to get able to shoot -- and Harrison can.
