Dolphins Tried To Sign DT Damon Harrison Off Seahawks’ PS, But He Declined

Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Dolphins recently attempted to sign DT Damon Harrison off of the Seahawks’ practice squad, but he once again declined and opted to remain in Seattle.

A few weeks ago, Buccaneers expressed interest in signing Harrison too, but it’s clear he’s sold on playing for the Seahawks. 

Harrison is working his way towards eventually being added to the Seahawks’ active roster. 

Harrison, 31, originally signed on with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of William Penn back in 2012. He spent four years with the Jets before departing in free agency for a five-year, $46.25 million contract with the Giants.

The Giants later traded Harrison to the Lions. He was entering the fourth year of his five-year, $46.25 million deal when he agreed to a one-year, $11 million extension last year. 

Detroit released him in February and it took until a few weeks ago for him to sign on to the Seahawks’ practice squad. 

In 2019, Harrison appeared in 15 games for the Lions and recorded 48 tackles, two sacks and three pass defenses.
