Pacman blasts James Harrison for recruiting Joe Burrow to Steelers
· Yahoo Sports
Pittsburgh Steelers legend James Harrison may have rubbed former Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Adam "Pacman" Jones the wrong way with his recent Joe Burrow trade talk.
Earlier in the week, Jones blasted Harrison over his claims that he has talked to Burrow about joining the Steelers, ripping the city of Pittsburgh and calling out the situation as "tampering."

“James Harrison had a comment talking about talking to Joe Burrow to go to Pittsburgh, the sh---- a-- state,” Jones said via the Politely Raw podcast. “We are orange and black, not yellow and black. Our roads do not have big a-- potholes in them when you driving around. … But he had the nerves to come out and say that he had to talk to Joe Burrow? I talked to Joe Burrow. Ain’t no way in hell. Joe is an Ohio boy. We do not want to go to Pittsburgh.
“This organization that had all Fs on this report card? It seems like it would be a downgrade to anybody that’s leaving Cincinnati to go to Pittsburgh. This sh-- has gotta stop, and it’s gotta stop right now. And I called James and I told him, ‘Hey, stop tampering with our f------ players.’”
Yikes. While some took Harrison’s calls for Burrow with a grain of salt, it’s clear Jones isn’t amused.
Jones hasn't been shy about sharing his disdain of the Steelers, and these recent calls for the Bengals' superstar quarterback to leave Cincinnati for Pittsburgh only intensified the bad blood.
