Fans loved Harrison Smith’s player introduction on ‘Sunday Night Football’ this week.
Harrison and the Minnesota Vikings are playing the Detroit Lions for the NFC’s No. 1 seed, with both teams entering the night’s fixture with 14-2 records.
The safety would introduce himself as “Hitman” during the ‘SNF’ player intros, which was a hit with the fans, although some thought it sounded like he was saying “Peyton Manning.”
