Seahawks pick up Harris; Whitehurst signs with KC
By United Press International
SEATTLE — The Seattle Seahawks signed former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Franco Harris, who is approaching the National Football League career rushing record, to a one-year contract yesterday as a replacement for injured Curt Warner.
Warner, who last year led the Seahawks to their first playoff, suffered a season-ending knee injury Monday in Seattle's 33-0 victory over
Harris, who is just 363 yards short of Jim Brown's NFL rushing record of 12.312 yards, is expected to be in the top 50 at a time against the San Diego Chargers.
Harris, 34, was in a contract dispute with the Steelers this summer. The club released Harris Aug. 15, after he was no sign of breaking the impasse.
"Our goal here is the Super Bowl," Harris said. "It will be a hard job to replace Curt. I have all of respect for him. I'm happy to be here."
The signing of Harris was just part
of a flurry of intense activity around the Seaahawks' headquarters Wednesday. Three other veteran NFL running backs — Rickey Young, Perry Harrington and George Peoples — were given tryouts earlier in the day.

the sea. The Seahawks were anxious, even to the point of desperation, to find another running back.
Along with losing Warner for the rest of the 1984, backup Zachary Dixon also suffered a knee injury, although less serious, in the game Monday. That left Seattle with only veteran, Eric Lane — primarily a special teams player — and three fullbacks to carry the ball this Sunday.
Warner underwent surgery Tuesday to repair the damage suffered to a ligament and cartilage in his right knee. He is expected to make a complete recovery, but will not play again this season.

In other National Football League transactions yesterday, the Kansas City Chiefs announced the signing of former Green Bay Packers quarterback David Whitehurst as the team's third quarterback on the roster.

To make room for Whitehurst on the roster, the Chiefs placed offensive tackle David Lutz on injured reserve. Lutz was injured in last Sunday's victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers and was expected to be sidelined eight to 10 weeks with a sprained right knee.
The seven-year National Football League veteran, a free agent, was scheduled to begin practicing with the team immediately to prepare for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
No surgery was required to repair the injured knee, but Latz will be in a cast for four weeks before he can begin rehabilitation, the Chiefs said.
