Steelers' Harrison: I can play over 25 snaps a game when I'm 50

Steelers linebacker James Harrison doesn't think age will slow him down -- at least not for 15 years or so.

"I think I can play more than 25 snaps a game when I'm 50," Harrison said after Tuesday's OTA session, per PennLive.com.

The 37-year-old Harrison apparently doesn't agree with sentiments held by linebackers coach Joey Porter, who proclaimed earlier this offseason that he plans to limit Harrison to 25 snaps per game in 2015.

Harrison has said he enters every season planning to be a starter, and his 13th year in the league will be no different.

"That's the road I've took so to speak," Harrison said. "It's nothing different. You can say I can't do this, I can't do that, I'm too old to do this, too old to do that, but I'm still here."
