More reactions from Pittsburgh Steelers past and present to the death of Franco Harris early Wednesday morning. Joe Greene, arguably the biggest name in franchise history, joined NFL Network’s Total Access to discuss hearing the news of Harris’ death. Like the rest of Steelers’ Nation, Greene can hardly believe the news.
“It’s incredible,” Greene said. “This is like a bad dream and I’d like to wake up and find it all untrue that I’ve been experiencing the last 10 to 15 hours.”
Greene was the first building block in building the franchise’s 70s dynasty but Harris was just an important of a piece as the Steelers ran their way to their first two Super Bowls in 1974 and 1975.
