Cadillac "Cardiac" Harris (born Myles Lamar Harris on September 2, 2015) is an American football cornerback for the London Royals of the National Simulation Football League (NSFL). He played college football for the University of Southern California, where he set the single-season collegiate records for interceptions and passes defended, earning All-Conference honors for the Pac-12 in each of his three seasons, as well as the Jim Thorpe, Chuck Bednarik, Bronko Nagurski, Heisman award, Tillman award, and Jack Tatum awards in his final collegiate season. He declared for the 2035 DSFL Draft, and was picked #18 overall.

Early years

Born in Agua Fria, New Mexico, Cadillac attended Agua Fria High School, where he excelled at basketball and soccer, earning all-state honors as a freshman and sophmore. He did not begin playing football until his junior year of high school, having been recruited as a kicker for his team. He did not prove to be adequate at the position, but his speed, size, and physical talents convinced his coach to play him as a third-string free safety for his team. Cadillac started his first game halfway into the season as an injury replacement, and recorded 3 interceptions in the second half alone, the last of which was returned for the game-winning touchdown, establishing him as a starter. He was eventually moved to Cornerback after having proved himself more capable at the position than Free Safety, but was still utilized as an alternate. He ended his junior season with 8 interceptions, 2 forced fumbles, 19 passes defended, and 3 touchdowns. However, at the beginning of his senior season, tragedy struck. Cadillac's older brother, Jamal, a star running back at Auburn University, was killed in a car crash. Cadillac, upon learning of the news, became determined to live out Jamal's dream of one day making the NSFL Hall of Fame. Cadillac came into his senior season with the intention to break records, intentions that he followed through on. He finished his senior season with 15 interceptions, 38 passes defended, 4 forced fumbles, and 1 touchdown. He did not allow a single receiving touchdown that season, which put him on the radar of several top colleges. He decided to commit to USC for his college career, wearing the number 9 in honor of his brother, who wore it in high school.

College career

Cadillac started right off the bat as a freshman, and excelled despite a lack of experience at the collegiate level, was able to contribute effectively as he adjusted to the Trojans' defensive system. He contributed 28 tackles, 5 interceptions, 20 passes defended, and 2 touchdowns during the season. In his sophmore year, it was clear that he had improved greatly. He was recognized as a lockdown corner by the end of the season after having contributed 10 interceptions, 30 passes defended, 1 touchdown, and 35 tackles during his sophmore season. He ended the season as a finalist for the Jim Thorpe award, which he was now deadset on winning in his final collegiate season. As a junior, Cadillac was a star. He contributed 16 interceptions, 33 passes defended, 40 tackles, 3 forced fumbles, and 3 touchdowns at the end of his junior season, leading the Trojans to the College Football National Championship, in which they beat the LSU Tigers, 35-31. He won the Jim Thorpe award in a landslide victory, the Tillman award, the Chuck Bednarik award, the Bronko Nagurski award, the Heisman Trophy, and was also able to bring home the Jack Tatum award. He was named first team All-Pac12 in his sophmore and junior seasons, and earned second team honors in his freshman season. Following his highly decorated collegiate career, Cadillac declared for the DSFL draft, switching his number to 23, the number his brother wore during his college career, and planned on wearing professionally.

Professional career

DSFL

Cadillac Harris was taken with the number 18 overall pick in the 2036 (S21) DSFL Draft by the London Royals, a newly created expansion team that plays in the NFC North. He was able to greatly impress and overperform in the pre-season, as the Royals went 2-2, winning their first and last game of the stretch. He ended the pre-season with 21 tackles, 4 pass deflections, 2 interceptions, 1 forced fumble, and 1 fumble recovery. Following a great pre-season performance, his expectations could not have been higher for the regular season. Sadly, the entire team experienced a large drop in form and performed much worse than they had initially expected to based on their pre-season performance. In his first regular season game, Harris registered 7 tackles in a blowout 34-7 win against the Dallas Birddogs, who were the other expansion team and the Royals' biggest rival. In the next game, the Royals were now at the end of a massive blowout by the Tijuana Luchadores, losing 40-7. Harris registered 4 tackles and 1 pass deflection. Following this game, the Royals traveled back home to face off against the Norfolk Seawolves, who beat them soundly by a score of 28-17. Harris registered 4 tackles. The Royals then traveled to Myrtle Beach to play the Myrtle Beach Buccaneers, who trounced them in a 27-14 loss. Harris registered 2 tackles and 2 pass deflections in the defeat. In their next game against the Kansas City Coyotes, the Royals lost once again, this time 34-16. Harris registered 3 tackles. The Royals finally registered another win in their next game against the Minnesota Grey Ducks, who they defeated 27-21. This was a big game for Harris, who was filling in at the Strong Safety position. He registered 8 tackles and one sack, a sign of improvement in his performance. The Royals then faced the Portland Pythons, who defeated them 27-10. Harris registered 6 tackles and 2 pass deflections. The Royals once again faced the Birddogs in their next game, losing 27-10, with Harris registering 5 tackles in a losing effort. Next, they played the Luchadores, who they defeated 24-21 in an overtime thriller. Harris ended the game with 5 tackles and one pass deflection. Following this, they once again played the Seawolves, and defeated them 20-14. Harris ended the game with 2 tackles. They then faced the Buccaneers, who they were defeated by 22-17. Harris registered 2 tackles and 3 pass deflections in the game. In their next game, the Royals were defeated by the Coyotes 20-10, a game in which Harris registered 4 tackles and 2 pass deflections. Following this loss, the Royals traveled to beat the Grey Ducks 27-10, with Harris having another great game. He ended the game with 4 tackles, 1 pass deflection, and 1 interception, which he returned for 11 yards. In their last game of the season, the Royals were defeated by the Pythons 24-7, a game in which Harris registered 3 tackles and one pass deflection. The Royals ended the season with 5 wins and 9 losses, worst in their conference, and tied for worst in the league. Overall, this was not a great season for Harris, who ended with 59 tackles, 14 pass deflections, 1 interception, and 1 sack.

Trivia

  • Cadillac’s legal first name is Myles, and his middle name is Lamar. Despite this, everyone refers to him by his nickname, 'Cadillac', which was given to him by his brother. The name alludes to Cadillac Williams, his brother’s favorite football player growing up. Eventually, the name caught on, and despite it not being his real first name, it is the only thing that he’ll allow people to refer to him as, with the only exceptions to this being his parents, who still call him Myles.
  • Cadillac’s second nickname (the one that he actually uses as a true “nickname”), Cardiac, was given to him by the USC football color commentators due to his knack for making interceptions and forcing fumbles in critical situations, the most notable of these being the pick six at the end of the national championship game during his junior season that sealed the win for USC.
