  • Last week Randy Moss worked out for the New Orleans Saints where it was reported that he “looked like the old Randy“. On the heels of that report Moss is taking his talents to the Bay area where he’ll work out for the San Francisco 49ers today, but one interesting factoid is that he’ll be catching passes from his possible future coach — Jim Harbaugh.

    49ers CEO Jed York tweeted early this morning that Jim “Captain Comeback’ Harbaugh, would in fact be the one who will be throwing passess to Moss at the workout.

    It should be noted that Harbaugh was an NFL quarterback for 13 seasons, and Alex Smith cannot throw in a workout until the new league year starts, which is Tuesday at 4 PM E.T.

    News of this NFL workout oddity, which has the head coach throwing to a potential receiver, sparked the interest of numerous Twitterers:
