Harris, who hauled in 43 receptions for 425 yards and four scores as a receiving threat for the Crimson Tide in 2020, wasn’t thrilled with McShay’s assessment, so he fired back a brutally honest response to Schefter.

“I think Todd McShay can kiss my a–,” Harris said.

Harris, who is considered to be one of the top two running backs in the 2021 draft class alongside Clemson’s Travis Etienne, felt like he didn’t have many opportunities during his freshman and sophomore seasons at Alabama.

Harris set Alabama career records with 57 total scores, 3,843 rushing yards, and 46 rushing touchdowns. He should step into an NFL offense and make an immediate impact right away.
