The Long Snapper Is a Low Risk Position

Greg Warren, the Steelers long snapper, tore his ACL while running downfield to pursue the punt returner and he wouldn't be back. Midway through the fourth quarter, the Steelers were deep in their own territory and they had to punt again. They turned to James Harrison, one of the team's best players but a linebacker. Trained not in long snapping but in chasing and tackling offensive players. Snaps it out of the end zone for a safety and the Giants have tied the score at 14 as Greg Warren was carted off.
