As expected, the Denver Broncos exercised Chris Harris’ $1.1 million option to start the 2019 off-season. At 29 years old, Harris is expected to return from a fibula injury sustained during the Broncos’ Week 13 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Rehabilitation appears to be on schedule and Harris is expected to lead a very thin Broncos Secondary.
Harris, who credits himself with the naming rights to Super Bowl 50’s, “No Fly Zone,” remains among the top cornerbacks in the NFL. Throughout his 8 year career, the undrafted cornerback from Kansas has recorded 19 interceptions, 5 forced fumbles, and 405 solo tackles through 123 games.
