The Oakland Raiders bring back Napoleon Harris

The Raiders have signed 30-year old linebacker Napoleon Harris to a 1-year contract.  Harris played in 10 games (5 starts) for the Vikings last season and he made 32 tackles and had 1 sack.  Harris has now played in 100 games (73 starts) in his NFL career and he has made 481 tackles, has 8.5 sacks, has defensed 12 passes and he has 4 interceptions.  Harris’ best seasons came in a Raiders’ uniform so they hope coming back to Oakland will revive his career.  Harris played in 45 games (38 starts) for the Raiders (2002-2004) in which he made 249 tackles, had 2.5 sacks and he defensed five passes.  With the injuries the Raiders currently have at linebacker it was a very smart move bringing Harris back.

UPDATE:  The Raiders didn’t like what they saw out of Harris cutting him just five days after he showed up.
