PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 2 (UPI) -- Running back Ronnie Brown and tight ends Zach Miller and Desmond Clark were among the NFL players signing new contracts Tuesday.

Brown, the Miami Dolphins' third all-time leading rusher, agreed to a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles Tuesday, the team said.

The second overall pick in the 2005 NFL draft, Brown spent six years in Miami, running for 4,815 yards with 36 touchdowns. He also played quarterback frequently in the Dolphins' "wildcat offense."

Miller, meanwhile, has reached a five-year, $34 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks, The Seattle Times reported.

The free agent was a Pro Bowl selection last year. He has spent his four-year career in Oakland, where he racked up 226 receptions for 2,712 yards and 12 touchdowns in 62 games.

And the Chicago Bears brought back Clark Tuesday after he agreed to a one-year deal.

The 12-year veteran has spent the past eight seasons with the Bears, hauling in 323 passes for 3,591 yards and 27 touchdowns.

The Eagles also announced Tuesday they had signed former Denver Broncos offensive tackle Ryan Harris to a one-year deal.

Harris, 26, was the Broncos' starting right tackle for the last three years.
