Harris won four Super Bowls as part of the Steelers dynasties of the 1970s. He’s the franchise leader in rushing yards with 12,120 yards and was to have his jersey retired on Saturday. By all accounts, Harris was a remarkable man who fully embraced everything it meant to be a part of the Steelers even well into his retirement.
