Franco Harris: Statue| Nationality| Catch| Did have cancer
The Pittsburgh Steelers and the NFL community are mourning the loss of legend Harris. The Hall of Famer passed away this week at the age of 72.
Statue
In a word, the idol of Franco is home. “There’s something positive and hopeful about it,” said Masich, who came up with the idea for the airport sculptures. “First of all, it’s a very difficult catch, just getting to the ball, off balance with one foot in the air.
Nationality
He holds an American nationality. He was an American professional football player who played in the National Football League.
Catch
The ball either hit the helmet of Raiders safety Jack Tatum or Fuqua’s hands. Steelers fullback Franco Harris caught it just before it hit the ground and ran for the game-winning touchdown.
Did have cancer
The cause of Franco Harris’ death has not yet been revealed. He was 72 years old. His son, Doc Harris, said his father passed away during the night. No cause of death was given.
Woke up this morning to the devastating news that my friend Franco Harris passed away during the night. One of the kindest, gentlest men I have ever known. He was a great person & great teammate. Hall of Fame player but so much more than that. A tremendous role model for me! pic.twitter.com/OswJ82x7I1
