FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- With three position changes and a number swap in the past two months it hasn't been easy for Falcons defensive back Antoine Harris to make a name for himself.
The second-year pro entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Tennessee Titans. He played cornerback on the team's practice squad and signed as a corner with the Falcons on Jan. 10. He came to Falcons camp wearing No. 39, but ended the preseason with No. 41. In the process he switched to safety.
Now he's more of a "defensive back."
It's no surprise the one thing he wants heading deeper into the season is some continuity.
"I just want to stay here," he said. "I want to be out on the field playing with the guys, so whatever it takes for me to be able to do that and help this team win I'm willing to do."
With veteran safety Chris Crocker working his way back from a preseason knee injury, Harris stepped into his third position of the year -- nickel back. And, if that weren't enough, he now has another new adventure to face this Sunday against the Panthers -- playing family.
