Rodney Harrison, the defender who was closest to the play when David Tyree made his unbelievable catch late in Super bowl XLII, has written the introduction to Tyree's book, "More Than Just a Catch," which is due out in September, according to The Boston Globe. In the book, Tyree details his struggles with alcohol and drugs before he turned his life around and became a born-again Christian, as well as the death of his mother late last year.

"Just from a spiritual standpoint, I heard what he went through with his mom, her passing, and everything he kind of endured this season," Harrison told the Globe. "You can see why he was blessed at that particular time. God has a way of showing you different things through different people, and I'm not a hater. You beat us, so I congratulate you and we move on."
