Jackie Harris was a workman-like tight end with good blocking skills and better pass-catching skills. A 4th round pick of the Packers in 1990, Jackie spent four seasons with Green Bay, including a couple of them as a target for a young QB named Brett Favre. From there, Jackie spent four seasons with the Buccaneers and two seasons with the Oilers/Titans. In 2000, I was a happy Cowboys fan when Jackie signed with Dallas. However, with a horrible team around him and no good QB to get him the ball, Jackie had a low-key two seasons in Dallas, retiring after the 2001 season. These days, Jackie and his wife own a string of Christian radio stations in Arkansas and are successful business owners in his hometown of Pine Bluff.

I enjoyed plucking this card out of the commons box and getting it signed. Fr what I remember of a few years ago, Jackie was a non-signer, so it was good to see him signing now. Also, the card really looks exceptionally good signed.
