Al Harris, a 10 year veteran and former Bear, returns to linebacker under Eagles coach Buddy Ryan. Harris credits Ryan for reintroducing him to the position and system he played in Chicago. Ryan notes Harris graded best among linebackers in Philadelphia's win over Atlanta. Harris, 6'5" 265, says size poses no issue as he relearns technique and pass reads. He sat out 1985 due to a contract dispute and hopes to help Philadelphia reach a title run after Chicago’s playoff upsets.
