Blue Bombers running back Andrew Harris eager to face former Lions teammates
WINNIPEG — The timing couldn’t be better for Andrew Harris to get back on the football field.
The Blue Bombers running back has recovered from a suspected ankle injury that sidelined him for three games in time to face his former B.C. team Saturday afternoon at Investors Group Field.
Winnipeg’s big free-agent signing has more friends than foes on the team that gave him his CFL start in 2010, but he expects to exchange some barbs once the whistle blows.
“Obviously, I’m going to have a couple of words with the guys, have a little fun with it, but it’s about getting first downs and getting points,” Harris said Friday after Winnipeg’s walk-through.
