Mike Tomlin chose Bengals' LS Clark Harris:
“Super excited. I was blown away,” Harris told The Enquirer. “It’s just awesome. To be able to play in the Pro Bowl is something I’ve always wanted to do. I felt like a couple of years I should have earned it but as a long snapper, we can’t earn it, so it’s nice to be able to go after all these years.”
“Maybe they just saw that I’m old and on my way out and they wanted to throw me a bone before I left,” Harris laughed. “I don’t know. I don’t know if they went with an older guy or what their thought process was but I’m glad that I got the call. I like them a little more now.”
“Being voted in would maybe mean a little more but it does mean something,” Harris said. “It’s awesome that after all this time, after all the hard work I put in I’m getting a little bit of recognition from somebody.”
