The Eagles signed veteran safety Antoine Harris today and released safety Brett Johnson.

The 5-10, 205-pound Harris had spent the last three seasons with the Atlanta Falcons. He also spent a year with the Tennessee Titans. He played in 10 games last year and had three tackles. He played his college ball at Louisville.

Johnson was waived injured. He was an undrafted rookie out of Cal who initially had signed with the Bills. The Bills released him and he signed with the Eagles.

    They may have added this guy but they are set at the saftey position with Allen, Mikell, Coleman and Demps but Harris may be lucky to make the practice squad.

    Coleman is going to be better than Allen in the long run.

    No way Coleman is better than Allen in te long run. Coleman may be good but Allen is going to be great.

It took Les only a few seasons after the switch to figure out that there was no penalty box at the Linc, and that the time really wasn't his, despite what Andy Reid kept saying. Les came to Philadelphia and the Daily News from Charlotte in 1983. In the intervening years, he has pretty much lost track of NASCAR, and his accent. He, his wife Barbara, and their two sons live in Haddon Township, New Jersey. E-mail Les at bowenl@phillynews.com and follow him on Twitter.

Paul DomowitchPaul Domowitch has been with the Daily News since 1982. He has spent most of his nearly 3 decades with the paper covering the Eagles and pro football. For the last 10 years, he’s been a selector for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. A native of Wilkes-Barre and a graduate of Wilkes University, Domo started his career in Texas, working first for the Midland Reporter-Telegram (1976-78), and then for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, where he covered some god-awful Texas Ranger baseball teams. His first beat at the Daily News actually was boxing, which he covered just long enough to lose 2 sports coats to blood spatter before moving on to football. Domo and his wife Shelley, a University of Oklahoma grad who still hasn’t gotten over that Fiesta Bowl loss to Boise State 5 years ago, have 2 terrific daughters -- Allison, 28, who is an attorney in South Jersey, and Amy, 25, who works in administration for a professional baseball team.
