SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - OCTOBER 30: Shelby Harris #93 of the Seattle Seahawks celebrates a stop against the New York Giants during the fourth quarter at Lumen Field on October 30, 2022 in Seattle, Washington. After nine seasons in the NFL, defensive end Shelby Harris finally gets to experience the playoffs in his first year with the"It's something I've always wanted in my career, and something I've never been able to get to," Harris said.
After the Seahawks' win over the Rams on Sunday afternoon kept the team alive, Harris retreated home to watch the Lions-Packers game with his family to see if his season would continue. That was the conventional wisdom at least. Denver was a contender. Seattle was in a rebuild. Instead, the Seahawks are in the postseason and the Broncos knew they'd be watching the playoffs, again, before the calendar turned to December.
"He's a smart player," head coach Pete Carroll said. "The experiences that he's had, he has grown from. He can talk about the style of play and the style of other teams and the settings when you go to another place that he's been a couple times—Kansas City, he had a good feel for how that was going to go. And he's been willing, like Bruce has been willing to share and be open about it, and it has been helpful for us.
For Harris, he's always had fun and enjoyed playing even when the teams he was a part of weren't winning. It's been since his junior season at Illinois State in 2012 that he's played for a team that finished with a winning record ."I would describe it as fun," Harris said. "I've had a great time.
"He is officially going to be able to ," Carroll said. "He was out there in the walkthrough today and it's great to see him back."
