The Seattle Seahawks placed WR Paul Richardson on season-ending injureed reserve and promoted RB DuJuan Harris to their active roster on Saturday.
Richardson, 23, was placed on the PUP list at the start of the season to buy him time to come back from an ACL injury he sustained back in January. Seattle activated him from the PUP list last month.
He’s in the second year of his four-year, $4,712,836 rookie contract that included $2,381,736 guaranteed. Richardson stands to make base salaries of $634,220 (2015), $848,440 (2016), and $1,062,660 (2017) over the remainder of the contract.
Harris, 27, originally signed on with the Jaguars as an signed undrafted free agent free agent out of Troy back in 2011. He was later claimed off of waivers by the Steelers before catching on with the Packers in October of 2012.
After a few years in Green Bay, Harris has had brief stints with the Vikings and Saints before joining the Seahawks’ practice squad a few weeks ago.
In 2014, Harris appeared in 15 games and ran for 64 yards on 16 carries (4 YPC) to go along with one reception for 17 yards receiving. He was contributed 456 kick return yards for Green Bay.
