Former Patriots RB Damien Harris is reportedly heading to this AFC East rival

Damien Harris might be leaving Foxborough, but the Patriots will be seeing plenty of their former leading rusher in 2023.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Harris has signed a one-year contract with the Buffalo Bills, keeping the talented back in the AFC East for at least another season.

Harris confirmed the report on Twitter Monday night.

Drafted by New England in the third round (No. 87 overall) of the 2019 NFL Draft, Harris was a productive rushing option for the Patriots when healthy. After limited reps as a rookie in 2019, Harris led New England in rushing yards in both 2020 (691 yards) and 2021 (929 yards).
