Harris Sees Short End Of Stick With Rams After Signing Namath
Rams quarterback James Harris laments being sidelined as the team signs Joe Namath and drafts Pat Haden. Harris argues his mobility and production merit a starting role, saying he has outplayed opponents and doubts he will be kept as a backup. He notes potential trade interest from the New Orleans Saints and reflects on past leadership by Rams owner Carroll Rosenbloom. He emphasizes his eight NFL seasons and historic start as a Black quarterback for the Rams.
