Good News About James Harrison’s Son

The outlook for James Harrison III, the two-year-old son of Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison, is positive two days after he was attacked by his father’s pit bull, according to the Associated Press. Bill Parise, the agent who represents Harrison, said that the toddler is “doing well,” as he recovers from a bite on his leg at a Pittsburgh children’s hospital. Per the report, it’s anticipated that the boy will stay in the hospital over the weekend. Parise said that the boy’s mother as well as Harrison’s massage therapist, who required three stitches, were both injured as they attempted to protect the boy. Parise pointed out that it was the mother who let the dog out of its pen, adding that Harrison wasn’t present. There is a history of acrimony between Harrison and the boy’s mother where the NFL Defensive Player of the Year was arrested for a domestic violence incident in Ohio for allegedly slapping her in the face and breaking her cell phone.
