I don't think Harris is going to retire at this point(though I think he should) too proud. I would have to guess the Packers give him a ring. He has meant so much to this franchise over the years.

No.

Much as I love him, saying something like that just makes you a homer.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Harris wouldn't want it. I think it's kind of insulting, but that's just me.

That's what I've been thinking. But Pack makes a good point about Harris's support and mentoring of other DBs this season. The team gets lots of rings and they can give them to whoever they want. Al might be a good choice, even if it would be a bittersweet momento for him, at best.

I'd give him a ring. Yes.

He's a big reason that the Packers have even gotten this far. He helped our entire secondary (with exception to Sam Shields, as far as I know).

True Packer at heart, I hope that he gets a ring, even though it will not likely happen. (But don't give him a ring over someone that's on the team and truly deserves one).

No, he wasnt on the team this year and it is that simple really. Johnny Jolly shouldnt get a ring either for the record. I wont care one way or another to be honest, but Al Harris missed a ring. It is a shame and sad, but sometimes the NFL works that way. Sterling Sharpe missed the 96 team because of injury. I know he retired after 94, but he would have been a Packer if not for injury. He didnt get a ring from the Packers. Unfortunately, injuries happen and the Pack knows that more than anyone does.

But the difference, as Pack has already pointed out, is that Harris actually was a member of the team this year, even if he didn't see any game action. Practice squad players get rings even though they don't play. If they get rings, why not Al?

Being on the PUP is technically not the same as being a member of the team. PUP is basically a protection plan, so you can evaluate a player more as they recover from injury. Also, Harris was a fallback plan because they wanted to look at Sam Shields. Harris was never on the actual roster from training camp throughout the season. I think that is worth noting.

I think a ring should be offerred and I would be happy if he accepted.
I could however understand if he declined.

I'd give him a ring.

Al wouldn't take it.
