Associated Press

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — Linebacker David Harris, the New York Jets' second-round pick, signed today.

The 6-foot-2, 243 pounder, the 47th overall pick in last April's draft, played at Michigan. He finished his career with 196 tackles, four sacks, one interception, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery and was a semifinalist for the Butkus award given to the nation's top linebacker.

He is expected to compete for a spot at inside linebacker in the Jets' 3-4 defense.
