One of my absolute favorite Vikings of all time! Truly great player and person. Skol 4ever!!

[@zottida1295]

I second that..SKOL

[@krufty47]

This guy is a true, real-deal, legendary Viking. This is where he wants to be. This is the team he loves. Not JUST a team he plays for. He will forever be a Minnesota Viking

[@brettduncan15]

My favorite Viking of all time. I’ve grown up as Harrison’s career has progressed. Can’t wait to see him in the Ring of Honor and the Hall of Fame

[@MidnightSpecial777]

One of my all-time favorite players to watch.

[@mikejones7450]

Harrison Smith is a great person and a good football, we need more players like him in NFL.

[@malbright45]

He is. He is a good football

[@nicholascrapser1366]

Lol

[@lkgLukeS]

Awesome player, SKOL

[@wildbillcarroll]

Great guy and player!!

[@stefaniesmith6010]

I just love this man. And his dedication to this team. Carry on Hitman!!! SKOL💛🏈💜

[@MrHim2121]

I love Harrison Smith❤️he’s my favorite defensive player of all time

[@ryanostenson104]

Thank you Harry for all the great years you've put in.

[@Tr4v3ler]

Long time Vikes fan. Moss and Harrison are my top two of all time.

[@AmericanNomad82]

Great choices. It's very hard to pick just 2 but i think i would choose Adrian Peterson for nber 1 and 🤔 mmm number 2 would be Jared Allen, Randy Moss, John Randle, Harrison Smith, Chris Carter... damnit i can't pick just 2. 🤣🤷‍♂️

[@LuisGonzalez-xf6ln]

My favorite all time vikings the best ss that ever played #skol 💜💯

[@gluna714]

He’s the reason I fell in love with this team 💜💛

[@ANEMIC27]

The hitman 👊🏾💯

[@jimberg4917]

I thought I was gay 'till I saw your face.

[@hungdinh9292]

One of the best Vikings

[@rivinius1]

We love you brother! 🙏🙏🙏

[@Godless-Being]

Great call Harry, the defense wouldn’t have been the same without you if you didn’t return. Even if the 2024-25 season turns out to(idk for sure) be your last, let’s make it memorable and let’s also hope he gets his gold jacket after announcing his retirement, I’ll be so pissed if he doesn’t get the gold jacket

[@tacticalmanagerbabymommaak5825]

One of my favorites

[@AmericanNomad82]

Love yah Hitman. Thank you for all your years with us and your dedication to our team. I'm glad you're still with us another season and i wish you could stay young and play for us forever. SKOL!!! 💪😈

[@alexbland7890]

Rocking my 22 jersey all year as I think this may be his last run. I never want it to be his last year.

[@danielvansteenwyk493]

Harrison Smith is as Viking as a human being can be. Dude is a football General. There should always be a place at the table for Harrison Smith. 💯 😈💪👊💥💜

[@Beanboozled7777]

I wonder after his playing career is over if he’d go into coaching especially with his overall knowledge of the game.

[@emmanuelbautista7460]

Glad to have you still as a Viking! Hitman 💯🔥💪🏽

[@jamesrohland4383]

Love the Hit Man.

[@olafwestermann8251]

What a great character and role model for everyone, especially for kids. One of the greatest Vikings ever. Sure future ring of honor member.

[@GeraldAnaya-nh7th]

I believe good things are going to happen for the vikings I been waiting for a long time I've been a vikings fan since 1986. Die hard Vikings, fan good things are going to happen go vikings

[@castlecircle7612]

When he does retire, I do hope he says it before the last home game he plays. 1 so we can show him our Love, 2 so we can put 22 in the Ring during that halftime.

[@krufty47]

I doubt it. He will always asses how his body feels during the offseason. And if he feels right, he's coming back.

[@forenziczteam]

Harrison coming back is always good news. I hope he never retires.

[@smithaz1981]

WHEN WE DRAFTED HIM IT WAS THE BEST OF DAYS SINCE ITS MY FAVORITE NUMBER AND MY LAST NAME WE STILL HERE.

[@swaslaukinonome]

So glad Harrison Smith is coming back! With all the new defensive players added, I think this defense could be a lot better than most people seem to expect.

[@Theoneyoluv]

One of my favorite player getting old😢

[@sotastatesoulja]

Im petitioning for a black schemed stitched Harrison Smith jersey!

[@Drew-oq6eq]

Can't wait to watch and root for this super guy playing at MetLife stadium against the New York Football Giants.

[@andyd5038]

And not the super bowl because its not going to happennnn

[@byronjacobson6651]

Can't stop determination, once he approach line of scrimmage,

[@johnnyledford5029]

One of the greatest vikings of all time Joey browner was my favorite but Harrison Smith is right behind him

[@Infointerest]

Hall of Famer!!

[@danielvansteenwyk493]

1st Ballot HOF Top Shelf Man

[@markwhite975]

When he hangs it up imma be real sad my favorite Viking he was here when it was good bad and ugly

[@bronzegonnagy]

Johnny on the spot. All day every day. Year after year.

[@TheFord1965]

Obviously he,s been a great player, we will see if he still has the foot speed.

[@wolfemanhd9872]

He’s so goated

[@Kanjo_Bazooie]

Bruh why you cut yo hair 😤 looked 🔥 last year.

[@juliaodenbrett2405]

First comment let’s go Vikings

[@FlickaNickk]

I’m a simple man. I see a Hitman video and I watch it.

[@stubert94]

his jeresy will probably be the last one i buy honestly

[@Godless-Being]

Why

[@jimberg4917]

Love Harry! The number 22 needs to be retired... no debate. And yes, Paul Krause is/was the GOAT.

[@lorantardy6315]

HOF!

[@QuetteWilliams]

To old now

[@Godless-Being]

Last I heard mid 30s ain’t old, stay salty

[@andyd5038]

Im coming back to finish last in the division- harrison smith

[@Verhiu]

Vikings have the most nfc north titles

[@andyd5038]

@@Verhiu and have an empty trophy case.. sit down

[@lincolnchafee9602]

​@@andyd5038so fascinating people like you who come to videos like this just to be negative lol. Why watch our players answer questions if you don't like the team?

[@joeypesek3936]

Bold of you to assume the Bears will be above average. They’ve improved on paper, but that’s it. Packers were very inconsistent last year. Lions are the real target

[@MatthewMKF]

​@@andyd5038well it's not empty, they won the NFL Championship a few times
