Bettis: 'Harrison wants to prove point to Steelers'

Former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jerome Bettis believes that his ex-teammate James Harrison wants to prove a point when he faces his old club with the Cincinnati Bengals.

The 35-year-old was released by the Steelers earlier this year after nine seasons at the club and was immediately snapped by the Bengals, their AFC North rivals.

"He's very upset about being tossed aside by the Pittsburgh Steelers," Bettis told ESPN. "He wants to show them that he had a lot left."

The Bengals face the Steelers later today.
