Former NFL SS Rodney Harrison said he would likely have played 20 years in today’s NFL – particularly under the new collective bargaining agreement, which limits offseason contact and shrinks practice windows. ‘They’ve cut down on a lot of these hits in minicamps, training camps and padded practices and all the physical contact during the season,’ Harrison said. ‘If I were playing right now in this era, I could probably play 20 years because we wouldn’t have all of those physical contact practices.’
